In this video I replace my top and bottom ball joints on my 2007 holden rodeo. You can also follow us on: Instagram: / outnabout08 Facebook: Out-n-about-...
Great video easy to understand. I think mine might need doing. Got a knock from the front but feels more on the anti roll bar. So going to change those bushes first as they look pretty poor. Will watch this again though before I attempt it
Is it better to replace the ball joints with oem parts, especially the lower ball joint?? I have read on the internet people say the aftermarket ones doesn’t last long. I am planning on replacing my top and bottom ball joints, wheel bearings and might want to do the rack ends whilst at it. I am no mechanic, but your video will help a lot. Regards from SA!
@@outnabout08 Hang in there mate! I also have a 4JJ1 07 Rodeo 4x4 and she's going to tick over 300k this week. I've been contemplating whether to update and several mechanics have told me to spend a little bit on maintenance and hold on to her. The newer equivalent replacement vehicles are nowhere near as good! (according to them). So I'm about to do front and rear shocks, rear springs, sway bar bushes and front upper ball joints. Thanks heaps for the helpful video!! Keep encouraging your kid mate. There's a desperate shortage of good mechanics and he seems dead keen!
Your son won’t forgot these moments mate top dad 👍
From all of the videos out there I like yours the best. Thank you guys

Hey mate did you use a joint press to get the joints on or no?
Great video. I tried to do mine while ago but didn't realise hub has to come off. I see it's much easier with hubs off.👍
Vo V, Thanks for watching👍
Can i get the lower ball joint out without removing the whole spindle?
Love the safety boots dude croc's would have been better
How long did it take you all up do you reckon?

Dewald Grobler, Thanks for watching👍 These are aftermarket and still good but i haven't really had them in long enough to judge.
One more question haha where did you jack the car up, on the control arm or the chassis?
All good Peter Brotherson, i jacked it up and had it on stands under the front crossmember on the chassis
Hey mate doing mine right now , did yours have an abs wire ?
Peter Brotherson, unfortunately i don't have abs. Good luck and i hope my video can help if u need it
How many klm’s on your truck when this was done? Still got it ?!
