Suspension Tear Down: Step 5 -Popping the Upper and Lower Ball Joints [Project Miata: Suspension Tear Down]
Time to make use of that nifty ball joint separator again. We need to pop both the upper and lower ball joints. These ball joints will have more tension in them than the tie rod end did, so keep and eye out for flying bits when they finally do pop. They also make a quite satisfying KUPUNG! noise when they cut loose thatâs loud enough to frighten the wee out of small children.
