Thanks for the great info! One question if I may...I'm going to attempt a coolant flush/replacement and while I'm at it I plan to replace the water pump, thermostat housing, thermostat, gasket, and hoses. In your opinion do you have any preference in the order of performing all of those prceedures. Does it matter? Thanks for your time.

Any chance you could give some insight/wisdom on changing out glow plugs....and broken ones too?
Thanks
Admin reply: Sorry, Kevin, not yet. I am doing that project this spring though, so I will be posting an article then.

Thanks for taking the time to do a ball joint write up. I just used it to complete a complete rebuild of all my front steering components. When I say complete I mean complete...from the bearing hubs to the ball joints. I wanted to have everything new again. To support your site ; I purchased it all from your links to Amazon. I even purchased the seal driver. It's a small sum of money compared to what the dealer wanted.
Thanks again,
Charles
Admin reply: Hello Charles. Thanks for posting. I am glad things went well. Thanks so much for using my Amazon links. That means a lot to me and is sincerely appreciated.
Best regards,
Jerry
