Don't use a torque wrench as a breaker bar. That will ruin your very expensive torque wrench.

I cringed every time he used his torque as a breaker bar....

Tke the upper ball joint nut loose first then hit the knuckle to pop the stud out of the knuckle .Then take lower loose then tie rod ends then axle nut and pull the knuckle with the hub off all together. Then press out the lower ball joint,

Hell, Dont let that heavy caliper hang from the rubber hose. use a cord or wire to hold it, not the heavy caliper and pads. GEEE!!

I have the same 2007 LImited. Mine had noises while turning. for a hundreds miles until i noticed it. Dont drive with bad noises. Torque them back very well.

After losing my first ball joint i grased all grease cups all over with a needle injector from a grease gun. I love my lifted liberty.

Watching you swing that baby Carpenter's claw handle was tough to watch.

My lower passenger just snapped going 100km, lost all control after front end hit the ground, slid into ditch, ripped out the axle, and the front fender, broke rim. No tell it was bad, or getting bad. Just snapped. Beef those babies up boys.

At a crawl the sound and clunking was terror, at speed, I don’t even want to imagine

2006 Jeep Liberty. My lower drivers side ball joint just snapped the other day. I've never seen that happen before. Luckily was going slow over RR tracks and pulled over immediately. Hate to think it would have happened on the interstate.
