Here's a slightly better picture. It looks easy enough. You will probably need to rent a ball joint separator to separate the stock lower ball joint. Is yours damaged?

Nope not me, I'm in MA.
![]() You can rent a 2-jaw puller from autozone for free. I think they have it listed as a tie-rod puller but it will work fine for that ball joint as well. Can you do it without it? Possibly by backing off the nut applying a little heat and whacking the bottom of the joint with a hammer or placing a jack under it. You're a lot less likely to damage something with the puller. If you decide to buy the tool instead it is only about $25 at Sears.
