Lower Control Arm/Ball Joint Prying Tools

[Milton Shaw]

That bar reminds me on an alignment tool for 60-64 Ford Fairlane's that had the slotted upper control arm caster/camber slots that a lot of Fords had. The problem was that the spring and shock mounted on the upper arm and kept you from being able to slide them. The tool was about that long and hooked/locked to both ball joint studs. Then you jerked it to get it to move. Took a lot of effort to get those to move.

I have a 36” Craftsman that I bought when Sears still sold tools that were made in the US. I use that. Sometimes I can use a smaller bar. Depends on the car.

Eric29, what length pry bar do you use with the OTC 6007? How many inches is your pry bar?

Tool arrived today! I ended paying 199 with free shipping on the company's website. Ordered it Sunday night and it got here today, Thursday, from Hawaii.

The owner of the company, Henry Sim was extremely accommodating in responding to my email inquiries in great detail. I even received a handwritten note on the packing slip and a pack of Hawaiian branded macadamia nuts, haha. Awesome!
