I'm not sure how to get to the 3 bolts to get the bearing assembly out. I'm thinking I have to pry it up away from the a arm , but how would I get it back on? I'm 28 yrs old, in the National Guard for 3 yrs now. I'm a deisel mechanic for the Guard. I'm just trying to help out some friends and make some money on the side. Thanks for the help yall.

Thanks,
Colonel

i assume your talking about the ball joint? unbolt it and push on the arm, it should go down and you can pivot the assembly to the side then pull it off after all bolts are out, to get it back in you should be able to pry it back down to put the assembly back on.


good luck and thanks for serving the country!
