Brief Overview

This is a specialized suspension service tool designed for the removal and installation of upper control arm ball joints on automotive platforms.

Why This Tool Matters for Your Shop

Suspension work demands precision and safety. A poorly-designed ball joint puller risks damage to the control arm, the ball joint itself, or the vehicle frame. This three-stud design has proven effective across decades of automotive service because the rigid guide rods prevent the common failure mode of "pulling crooked," which strips threads, damages the receiver, or bends the puller itself.

For resellers stocking suspension repair inventory, this tool fills a critical gap. Shops that lack proper ball joint pullers either resort to improvised methods (damaging components and incurring comebacks) or outsource suspension work to competitors. By offering this tool at a competitive price point, you position yourself as the trusted supplier for shops serious about suspension quality.
