Review: Worked great on my 2006 Chevy Trailblazer SS lower front ball joints! - I purchased the Astro Pneumatic 7897 Ball Joint Service Tool and Master Adapter Set as an desertcart Warehouse deal after *way* too much painful research on trying to determine what ball joint kit would work on my 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer SS front lower ball joints. Way too many of these reviews say NOTHING about what vehicle they used it for - shame on them. I emailed Astro and a few other companies about their application charts (specifically whether it would fit my vehicle) and almost every reply and every chart is close to useless. Only OTC responded with an affirmative via an application chart, but they required an additional $77 purchase for 4 more receiver/press pieces! OTC and Astro both listed length, ID and OD sizes for all their pieces though, so I was able to sort out that this Astro kit *might* do the trick. Fortunately, I was right. So my first goal was reliability - many people either hate or love the C frame that whatever brand kit comes with. So I weighted reviews on that topic. The confusing part about that is so many of these C frames (and kits) are identical, sold under different names, and sourced from China (well, all are sourced from China). Second goal was finding the right size receivers/adapters. That was almost impossible, since only OTC listed my car and virtually no one would list their application in their reviews (what is your problem, reviewers???). Through my frequent forum travels, I knew the Powerbuilt/Alltrade 648617 Kit #46 would fit - that's what most Autozones rent. But except for a deal I let slip through, it seemed like the price recently went up a bit and those were around $200. Third goal was affordability, since I was going to use this once for my TBSS, and *maybe* again on our Lexus RX330, but less likely. I could use the press for other things, like bushings and bearings, I suppose, but still - fairly limited use. Thanks to the desertcart Warehouse deal I got it for $93 in Very Good - Used condition. As usual, I made out on that deal, because it looked brand new. I can guarantee the C frame and threaded rod were NEVER used - they had some shipping/plastic grit on them that couldn't have been on it if it were used. And of course, the most important thing - did it work? Absolutely. The lower ball joints on a GMT360 (Trailblazer/Envoy/Ascender/Rainier/Bravada/9-7x) are notoriously nasty to remove, thanks to a horrible method GM uses with a flared end opposite the stud side with 3 tabs that are even more flared. I actually bought new lower control arms and bought new Raybestos Pro Grade ball joints and removed the cheap ones from the new control arm and put the Raybestos ones in. Why? Because after buying every front end part (inner/outer tie rods, stabilizer links, control arms, bushings, ball joints) for my truck 2 and 3 times over now in the past months, I've found about 33% of the time you get counterfeit or wrong parts. I gave up getting real Raybestos Pro Grade Lower Control Arms and decided to make my own, so to speak, replacing ball joints and bushings with ones I purchased seperately in 2 new lower control arms that kept showing up no matter who I bought it from. Why not just replace the ones in the arms of my truck? This way I had more time to make sure I could press these things in and out and also much less downtime with my truck. Anyway, I digress - the press works. I had to spray down the joints with PB Blaster, hammer the flared tabs and sides in a bit with a chisel and punch so they stuck up from the control arm, and then I used an angle grinder to grind that flared part off as much as I could without damaging the control arm, including a little finish work with a Dremel. One I let soak overnight, but after getting it out I didn't even let the other soak more than 10 minutes. I did use an impact wrench (an electric one from Harbor Freight - the cheap one, around $35 on sale), althought I tried to do it manually with a 25 inch breaker bar just to see how hard it was, and it was HARD - I was pretty sure I was going to snap something. so I went back to the impact wrench. I just kept pulling the trigger in 3-5 second bursts on the impact wrench - it made slow progress but it did make progress, and after 15 or 20 seconds it made a loud pop, and then a few more trigger pulls it came out the rest of the way. One note, I made sure the threaded rod and C frame threads were clean and in good shape and oiled them repeatedly during use. Far too many people don't use enough oil for these sorts of things and then complain. So while the kit itself didn't list my truck (or much of anything, actually), it worked, it worked well - I saw no visible bending or damaged threads - the rod didn't slip, everything felt like it was of reasonable quality and finish (these aren't SnapOn sockets, mind you) and I'm very happy I bought the kit. Would I buy this if I was a suspension shop? Maybe not - but for the casual consumer - I highly recommend it.
Review: Good for Dana 30/44 - Used it to press out original 26 year old ball joints on a 2000 XJ Cherokee, and original rusted in failed U joints on the front axle shafts, as well as pressing in new axle side control arm bushings. Came with the correct adapters for Dana 30/44 Axles. No sweat, no bend. Good quality metal.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what are the dimensions of the C clamp? also what is the length of rod itself?**
A: about the same as any other kit out there.  not really big enough.  none of them are.  also you will find yourself using a 6 foot cheater bar on your ratchet.  In my opinion, if you can sneak it past your wife.  Get this kit.  Then go buy the $129 12 ton press at harbor freight.

**Q: 7897 ball joint press. will it work on a 2003 chevy silverado 1500 4x4?**
A: it should. i used it on a 2004 f150 lightning and had no problems and it does have the extensions included for all types of 4x4s. hope this helps

**Q: Will this work for lower ball joints on a 2000 ford crown victoria?**
A: as long as it's the pressed in type ball joint, Yes.

**Q: Does the master set have the angled cup for jeep ball joints?**
A: I can't say. I bought it for my Ford F-250 and my expedition
