Hicas Knuckle Removal

[Jezabrad]

Hey guys

I have been looking for ages on how to do this but cant find anything on it.

I need to replace one of the hicas ball joints and am not 100% sure on how to.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

But hicks lock bar in? Haha

HICAS lock bar doesn't help when the tie rod end joints are worn out though.

OP - you need a ball joint splitter and some 4lb hammers.

I dont see how that splitter would help in this situation

I just removed my HICAS ball joints and put in an eliminator kit, have a look at this thread: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/448795-replacing-r34-diff-bushes-whats-involved/

This can be done without removing the hubs from the car but you need the right tools. Hammer isn't one of them

Any questions feel free to ask.

Never shocked a taper with a pair of hammers then?

No I haven't, had to google it, thanks for the tip! OP will still need more than a hammer to get the bushings out and new ones back in...
