Anyone got any tips on how to split stubborn ball joints?
I am trying to replace the front lowers on my '03 R170 but so far have been unable to split the joint to the upright and broken a couple of tools in the process. The same double tapered joint is used on several other models but access on the R170 is a limited due to the unique layout of upright and suspension arms.
Any tips or suggestions for suitable tools would be appreciated.
