86 2m4 ball joint questions (Page 2/2) theogre FEB 05, 11:54 AM quote Originally posted by Yorgle: Thanks for all of the input, folks. You've convinced me to abandon my pickle fork. One final question, though: if my lower BJ is, in fact, tack welded to the LCA, are the welds on the top or bottom? I ask because I'm not as inclined to tackle this job myself if I can't easily get at the welds. Just take a wheel off and look. Flashlight likely will help. If needed turn S-wheel left/right to see top. Might have grease etc hiding the weld on top or bottom. Not sure where. Might change for year. My 87 didn't have them welded and not looking at my 86.
