BMW Rear Ball Joint Removal & Installation Tool Set – E38/E39 Series

Brief Overview

This specialized tool set is engineered for fast and accurate removal and installation of rear axle ball joints on BMW 5 series (E39) and BMW 7 series (E38) vehicles. The kit includes multiple precision-machined cup adapters, a heavy-duty threaded forcing sleeve, and a long forcing bolt—everything needed for controlled, damage-free ball joint work. If you service BMW suspension systems, this tool pays for itself within the first few jobs. Consider pairing it with complementary BMW suspension work tools like a front wheel bearing installation kit or universal ball joint removal set for a complete suspension toolkit.

Key Features

• Multiple Cup Adapters: Three precision-designed cups accommodate different ball joint sizes and configurations
• Heavy-Duty Threaded Sleeve: Central cylindrical sleeve with internal threads for controlled press-in/pull-out operations
• Long Forcing Bolt: Coarse-threaded bolt with hex head for reliable mechanical advantage and consistent pressure
• Hex Adapter Nut: Small adapter for secure connection between forcing bolt and work pieces
• Blue Molded Carrying Case: Custom-fit case with dedicated recesses for each component—keeps the kit organized and ready for dispatch
• Black Matte Metal Construction: All working components finished in durable matte black with laser-printed markings for professional presentation

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High-Frequency Application: Ball joint service is a bread-and-butter repair on pre-2010 BMW 5 and 7 series vehicles—still common on customer cars
• Complete Kit Value: Customers cannot source individual adapters easily; they must buy the full kit, supporting premium pricing
• Repeat Orders: Shops that stock this tool will return regularly when they encounter E38/E39 suspension work
• Minimal Competition: OEM ball joint tools are often unavailable; independent shops rely on aftermarket kits like this
• Professional Presentation: Molded case and branded components give your shop credibility when customers see the tool in use

Why This Tool Matters

Ball joint work demands precision. Improper installation angles or uneven pressure cause premature wear and customer comebacks. This kit's threaded design ensures controlled, even force distribution—eliminating the guesswork of hammer-based methods. The multiple cups mean you're never improvising with the wrong adapter size.

For shops handling classic and aging BMW platforms, this is non-negotiable inventory.
