superstrut part II

[levin818]

These photos shows that my previous biggest lower arm doesn't sit/bite properly into the groove of the cross member. It give me "tok" noise during hard brake. If you force tighten the screw without pushed up the knuckle, this part will never sit properly.

[normality78]

i think the black clamp is common tools which apply to all the suspension. only the mini M clamp is the special one. pls corrrect me if im wrong

 

[levin818]

Hey guys, guest what? I saw the 2nd tool but in smaller size at a hardware shop at Sunway. It is use to force push out a bearing up to 20mm size. The shop also carry larger size tool with 3 big jaws for pushing out A/C compressor's pulley. Both may be suitable to push out SS ball joint.
I will bring the SS there to find out which tool is most suitable.
The small one cost abt RM50, big one is closed to RM100. Both made in China.
