- M3/Y Knuckle Ball Joint Replacement Tool
Retirer
- Inspectez le véhicule pour une usure anormale des pneus qui pourrait indiquer qu'un alignement du parallélisme des roues est nécessaire. Prenez en note toutes vos constatations.
- Open the LH front door and lower the LH front window.
- Remove the LH rear wheel. See Ensemble de roue (retrait et installation).

Remove the bolt and nut that attach
the LH rear upper aft link to the LH rear suspension knuckle.Conseil : Nous recommandons l’utilisation des outils suivants :
-
Install the knuckle ball joint
replacement tool onto the knuckle.
RemarqueMaintain the longest end of the threaded rod towards the front of vehicle to avoid contacting the brake caliper.RemarqueMake sure the cups sit flush to the ball joint and knuckle surface.RemarqueThe ball joint will only press out towards rear of vehicle.RemarqueApply lubricant to threaded rod if dry.
-
Press the LH rear knuckle upper rear
ball joint out of the knuckle.
RemarqueThe ball joint should press out with minimal resistance. If met with high resistance, inspect the tool cups for misalignment.RemarqueUse the windows in the receiving cup to monitor progress.RemarqueKnuckle is shown out of the vehicle for clarity.
-
Remove the knuckle ball joint
replacement tool from the assembly.
RemarqueDiscard ball joint once removed.RemarqueIf the ball joint sticks in the removal cup, gently tap it out with a punch.
Installer
-
Position a new LH rear knuckle upper
rear ball joint at the lead in of the knuckle bore.

-
Install the knuckle ball joint
replacement tool.
RemarqueMaintain the longest end of the threaded rod towards the front of vehicle to avoid contacting the brake caliper.RemarqueAlign the notch on the installation cup with the casting line at the top of the knuckle.RemarqueMake sure the cups sit flush to the ball joint and knuckle surface.RemarqueThe ball joint will only press out towards rear of vehicle.
-
Press the LH rear knuckle upper rear
ball joint into the knuckle.
RemarqueThe ball joint should press in with minimal resistance. If met with high resistance, inspect the tool cups for misalignment.RemarqueUse the notch in the installation cup to monitor progress.RemarqueWhen nearing the end of the bore, the installation cup may need to be re-aligned to meet machined surface.
-
Remove the knuckle ball joint
replacement tool.
-
Verify that the ball joint is fully
