I picked up a harbor freight ball joint press, it sure made removal easy. Now i am installing the first ball joint, i have it pressed in as far as it will go. The impact would not turn it and a 3 foot breaker bar could not turn it any more, however it's not all the way in. These new ball joints have a c-clip on the bottom and i can just barely see the slot for the clip but there is no way the clip would fit. I need it to go just a 1 or 2 mm more so that the clip will fit. Any ideas how to get that last little bit? All 240 pounds of me and a 3 foot breaker bar with a cheater can't move it any more. It is possible that these old knuckles are deeper then usual? This is on a 75 ish EB Dana 44.
Thanks KO.
