    What is the easiest way y'all have found to replace the uniballs? While I'm changing basically all of my front suspension I may add these to the list. Just don't want to pay $150 for a "uniball press" but don't want to destroy new bearings banging them with a socket and hammer

    Go to Autozone and rent a ball joint press. You have to pay for the tool, but when you return they will give you a full refund.
    I used that tool and some of its adapters and some big sockets I have. It will also help to have a 2nd pair of hands.

    Yea I know how the rental program works. I'll have to look at their ball joint tool.

    I have AllPro arms, they have replacement bearings for 40-50 each

    Yeah that does make sense, get what you pay for. But when the bear is stamped with the same part Number and manufacture its worth to shop around.
    I just bought a set of Bilstein 6112s for $550. I hunted to see what was out there and found them from $550 all the way up to $700+. It's the same part just someone has a better dealer discount I guess. Always worth to shop around versus going right back to the vendor

    Yeah I think I did my uppers while they were attached. I used a ball joint press rented from auto zone and got creative with some sockets.
