Install a 12 mm hex nut on the ball joint. Be sure
that the hex nut is flush with the ball joint pin end,
or the threaded section of the ball joint pin might be
damaged by the special tool.
Use the special tool as shown in section 18, to sepa-
rate the ball joint and lower arm. Be careful not to
damage the ball joint boot.
NOTE: lf necessary, apply penetrating type lubri,
cant to loosen the ball joint.
