I am unable to get the steering knuckle up high enough to reinsert the lower ball joing into the Control Arm. I have tried using a spring compressor but there is only room for one, not two so when it does not lift the steering knuckle high enough. Any ideas?

Hello,

You should be able to pry the lower control arm down the rest of what is needed. I can be a big pain if you are doing it yourself.
