comancheman Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 any ideas where i can get a tool for this. ive tried every autoparts store and the local dealership everyone looked at me like i was crazy.
Geonovast Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Why do you need a new one? If the collar itself is fine, I'd leave it where it is. Even if you get that out, getting the new one in isn't just a throw-in job. It has to be set at a certain point within 0.001".
comancheman Posted March 30, 2009 Author Posted March 30, 2009 i know it has to be set at certain depth. I have a micrometer and should be able to install without a problem. I suppose i could leave in the old ones, its just that i spent $220 on 4 new moog ball joints and i want everything to be the way it should when I'm done

I've seen people take an old socket that's the right diameter, and shave down the top to leave the 4 little pegs so they can remove it. Doing that's probably a lot cheaper than buying the specialty tool for it. And if you absolutely have to, you can still use the socket normally. :thumbsup:
maddzz1 Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Its called a split ring. That might help you when asking for the tool.
