I own a 84 l300 4wd and need to cahnge the left and right, upper and lower ball joints as
well as the front wheel bearings. It is going to cost me more then I can afford at the moment to get someone to do this. The labour alone is going to cost around $300. Part are around $350. Could someone point me to a website that shows you how to do this or is someone able to talk me through it.

buy a manual for it should have all the info you need to change, and if your a little mechanical minded then you should get it done easy, and upper and lower ball joint?? on a 4x4 ? you sure its a 4x4 as the front
wheels should be on a hub??, i could be wrong
cheers

L300.
There is a variaty of
tools to remove ball jionts, some rough mechanics use a piar of hamers. I find the best tool is like a very sturdy G clamp with a falked section that slips under the rubber boot, go to a decent tool
shop and have a look. Eric.
