A Laser Tool spokesperson said: “Late-model Ford Transit bolt-in style front lower ball joints are notoriously difficult to remove — a very tight fit, even after the securing bolts have been removed.
“This ball joint removal and installation tool is designed to easily extract and refit this bolt-in type of front lower ball joint on the vehicle and removes the need to use heat, hammer blows or a workshop press.
“It’s easy to use, just remove the lower arm and then the ball joint securing bolts.”
The Ford Transit front lower ball joint removal and installation tool is available from Laser Tools stockists, typically priced at £313.18 + VAT.
