Ball Joint for Xi Models
Crossing-posting from the seldom active E84 forum since it's basically an E9x.
I'm at 92k w/ my N55 X1 and getting ready to replace almost al thel suspension bits. The ball joint is the part that seems the most fun and I've got MAP, Kroil, and an air hammer ready to say hi to them. Most of what I'be read on the boards dealt with getting the ball joints out, not in. Assuming I run a scotch brite pad and slap some anti-seize in the knuckle cavity before putting in the new ball joint....do I still need a press? Or just 'something' to lightly tap it home? Seems the Xi's are different and particular about tooling.
