VI. Information
STEPS ON HOW TO DISASSEMBLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM
1. Remove the wheels using lug wrench.

2. Use a socket wrench to remove the ball stud nut.

3. Use a socket wrench to remove the axle nut.

4. Push the axle back through and loosen the knuckle assembly, moving it to gain
access to the ball joint.

5. Separate the ball joint from the lower control arm with your ball joint separator.
You can operate the tool with a socket wrench, using an appropriately sized
socket. You will hear a crisp, clear snap when the stud pops loose from the lower
control arm.

6. Push the axle shaft back through the hub assembly. You may need to use an
axle press and a socket wrench to get things started because often the axle can
become dry or stuck over time. Make sure you can swing the axle shaft clear and
prop it up (perhaps with a piece of wood or a tool). This frees up the lower ball
joint.

7. Remove the knuckle and the strut assembly out so your press can access the
ball joint.

8. Remove all break pipes.

9. Set up your ball joint press. The adapters you’ll need to use are vehicle specific.
The upper and lower cone will fit together on top and bottom of the ball joint.

11. Lastly pull-out the suspension spring and the struts.
