did one upper ball joint today. I was all set to have a nice time, and take pictures to document what I thought would be an easy job. Turned out to be a bear, tapered joint would not pop out they way "it should".

"details" here: http://shufti.wordpress.com/

I also took a quick picture of my modified Jackall, high lift style jack. I welded on a it of the stock jack to some box section steel and that is bolted on the Jackall's lift part.
