Lower ball joint

Why Thank you ;)

I'm currently running without 1 circlip. I decided to let the weight of the car push the joints into position after I applied some initial pressure. It took a few trips over a particularly bad dip in the road with the ahc set to soft to get her to hit the bump stop. Joint 95% pushed in now.
The clip is difficult to install once the arms are on the vehicle with wheels on.

Initial findings are: -
Tighter cornering, less slop
More feedback from the tyres to the cabin which I like (nice humm from the BFGs)
No knocking in the steering wheel and brake pedal over small bumps

All good and reasonably straight forward to do. I think it would be a lot more difficult without a press.

(Next job will be the rear shock upper and lower rubbers with polys)
