How to service and repair the lower ball joint on Dodge Ram 2500 Van?

For handling the lower ball joint, first raise and support the vehicle and next, take the front wheel and tire off. Unplug the outer tie rod end from the knuckle and take out the caliper along with its rotor. Hold the lower control arm in place, remove all the cotter pins and nuts on the ball joints and then proceed. Twist the threaded portion of C-3564-A on the ball joint to create pressure and you may need to also knock the knuckle with a hammer if the joint is difficult to loosen. Take out the ball joint seal and use the special remover/installer to press the ball joint towards the lower suspension arm bore. Place the ball joint remover/installer onto the lower suspension arm, where you will move the new ball joint in place. Next, fit a seal onto the ball joint and hold it firmly in place with a socket. Fit the steering knuckle onto the lower ball joint, mount the retaining nut and tighten to 183 Nm (135 ft. lbs.) for LD 11/16 or 237 Nm (175 ft. lbs.) for HD 3/4 torque specifications. After that, reattach the outer tie rod end to the steering knuckle and put new cotter pins in place. Install the rotor and disc brake caliper, then put on the tire and wheel combination and lower the vehicle. In addition, ensure that the car's wheels are correctly aligned.
