Lower Ball Joint Replacement
Hi, I am looking to do lower ball joint replacements for my R50 nissan pathfinder truck.
How difficult is it? do i need to remove the cv shaft?
are BAW parts good to get?
Any help here would be much appreciated. thanks.

Re: Lower Ball Joint Replacement
They are not too bad. You don't need to remove the CV, but you will need to remove the snap ring so it can slide back a bit to wiggle the ball joint out. Other than that it is fairly straight forward. I've never heard of BAW parts, I usually use moog.
