Replacing the lower ball joint on a Chrysler Sebring is not the easiest thing to do. The best option for replacing it is to seek out a chrysler dealership or go to a professional mechanic that knows the specific car model and have done this type of work before.
It's roughly only $20.00 more to replace the whole lower control arm that the ball joint sits in. It will save you alot of grief of pressing out old joint and pressing in the new one.
I just did this job on a 2005 Sebring. Not sure if the 2001 is the same or not, but if it is, you need to remove the control arm and have a shop remove the old ones and press in the news ones. Those things are pressed in there EXTREMELY tight. I tried to use a ball joint press on it while it was still in the car and it bent/ruined my ball joint press. Unfortunatley, removing the control arm is not easy either. The back part of the conrol are you have to drop the brace that connect the 2 subframes together, which there are brake lines attached etc... That job is a royal pain. If you can, just pay your local Chrysler dealer to fix it.
It has two shafts that have an inner and outer joint each. That totals four CV joints.
No the axle shafts use CV joints.No the axle shafts use CV joints.
It depends on the mileage, but this is what dealerships use to dtermine your cars worth before they buy it
There's three bolts holding it on to your control arm. Take those bolts off, and put your new ball joint on.
A 2004 Chrysler Town and Country does not have an upper ball joint.
The ball joint and control arm are 1 piece so you have to buy the whole assembly. Ball joint is not replaceable on its own. I paid about 120 for assembly. http://www.net-ebooks.com
On the back side (firewall side of the engine) a few inches above the oil pan, near the above a cv joint. Its best approach is from under the car.
