Hi,

I'm about to replace front ball joints (alluminium one), I was thinking of doing it by myself, is it possible to do it on the drive way with normal tools or it need to be done by specialist ? What tools would I need, any hints what should be done after ? I've read that geometry and alignment should be done after but some ppl saying it should be done and some it shouldn't :/ I couldn't find any DIY
 
21mm socket
19mm socket
8mm socket
6/7mm Allen key
10/12mm Allen key or e14/e16 torque socket
21mm spanner
Side cutter pliers
Zip clip x2
Possible breaker bar

Quite an involved job unless you handy with the spanners.

Geometry check is advisable.
