how do i change a lower ball joint on a 1992 ranger 2wd
The lower ball joints have to be pressed out. The upper ball joints are part of the control arm, so the complete upper assembly has to be replaced.
Depends on whether you have coil springs or torsion bars.
The upper ball joints must be replaced with the upper control arms but the lower ball joints can be replaced seperately. NOTE: THE BEST WAY TO GET THEM OUT IS TO KNOCK THEM OUT WITH A 3LB MINI SLEDGE HAMMER FROM AUTOZONE.

You change the control arms, upper and lower. The ball joints are manufactured into the control arms.
I changed mine . I purchased the parts at Auto Zone.
