Wow ! Got the hub bolt off and the upper ball joint bot off ..
Powerful impact gun took care of the hub nut ,, a young guy down the street had the impact and it came right off ..
The upper ball joint nut was stripped which had to be done on a recall years ago done by the dealer before I owned it .. the nut was the only thing spinning … ended up with the neighbor who also had a cutting tool that cut the joint stud almost all the way through then used my ballpoint fork and a hammer and 1 hit and the nut popped off ,,, New upper ball joint and hub installed and finished …
Put in the new disc pads and SOB.. the brakes are dragging hard and heating up so may need a caliper for the passenger side now !
Im really beginning to hate the passenger side lol.. I’ll ache for days now , I ain’t as young as I used to be to be
No heli coils needed and the new cotter pin is in ..
I’ll try tomorrow and see if the disc pads will settle in with some hard braking as the are ceramic disc pads if not the caliper time !
See any threads in the ball joint nut ? NOPE , GOOD JOB DEALER DUDE AND KISS MY ROYAL ASS , I don’t like blood thinner bleeding arms and knuckles
