ok so im trying to remove the upper ball joint from the suspension arm, i dont have access to an air chisel and i drille out the top of the rivets, but that thing WILL NOT budge, tryed sledge hammers and vises, not luck, i was wondering if you guys had any tips or suggestions.

thanx, mike

Assuming you got the top of the rivets completely out, use a cold chisel in between the control arm and the ball joint. Work each side evenly to work it out. Maybe add some heat to it and it should come out. It takes some work.

thanx man, i guess all it need was some fire and broken screwdrivers!
