Does the Bentley manual 'not know'  ?
I believe they show you how to do that in that manual. in pictures.


I believe it's not that easy to do, kinda a bit tricky even.
One guy told me a VW dealer messed up his new ball joint doing the job.


might be the single hardest part to replace on a vanagon.

Hi ,
   Does anyone know the proper way to press the lower balls joints into the
steering knuckle  (91 2wd)? Is there a special tool required?
Anyone near  Baltimore equipped to do this?
Thanks,
Dennis Atkins
