Upper ball joint socket

[cudafstbk]

Hi Guys...what size socket do I need for the upper BJ on my 69 Cuda? Any tips on where I can pick one up...Thanks...John

I had a seldom more likely never used 1-7/8" 12 point socket that I took a die grinder to 4 of the points about a 1/4" down.

If you have the 73 up disk brake uppers moog k772 type this will work nicely.

I've seen poor boys in the hood use a pipe wrench....(but yes I have both sizes)

Hey, what's wrong with the pipe wrench?
I seem to remember doing that once or twice...
Hey, it was a long time ago, really!
(and welding them after install because the thread was almost nonexistent)
And how many of us are going to do it THAT often?
