Anyone seen these on amazon? One of the reviews said the lowers didn't work on rigs built in the states but did on ones hencho in Mexico. The price seems almost too good so figured I'd ask around.

I just finished installing a set I purchased through amazon warehouse deals. this is where amazon sells returned items. they have a set for $118.00 on there now, the set I received was complete in the original box, one of the joint bags was open but all the accessories were in the kit .

Go to Advanced Auto Parts for the ball joint kit, it comes with all the adapters you will need. they loan you the tool, they charge $180.00 plus tax and refund the charge when you bring to tool back

Thanks guys. Will order up soon. Found out today a bunch of MasterCard #'s were compromised, of course ours may be included. It's only about the 5th freakin time. Eugene great call on the advance auto tool. Better than buying the 70$ harbor freight one for now.

I have the harbor freight one and it worked great after I broke the rented tool.

That may be the way to go if you had good luck with it. Could use it for rebuilding JJ style ends too I would think with the right combo of adapters or sockets.

Got my kit today and my question was answered as to how the lower joint is greasable with so little room around the knuckle. Comes with a needle fitting for anyone else wondering. Need to pick up a new tip for the old gun.
