Hello All,
I am contemplating changing the ball joints myself, quite handy with a spanner and fancy a go.
Firstly, I need a spring compressor. Clearly there is the Klann tool at one end of the price spectrum at the other there are the kits such as the ones on ebay and amazon about £60-£70.00 and in the middle is the Laser tools kit at about £200.00. The Klann one is out of the question unless by some miracle one crops up on ebay. I just wondered if any members have any views or experience with any of these others.
Secondly, I have seen many ball joint installers and removers but none that specifically say W124, most seem to be for later E class W211 and CL's
All the best and thanks.
Chris
