How do you replace 2003 Dodge Caravan ball joint?

The lower ball joint presses out. You need a ball joint press you can rent one at autozone. Also, the lower control arm needs to be inspected real good,sometimes if the lower control arm bushings are worn bad enough its cheaper to replace the whole thing ,rather then try to repair the one you got. I have seen some that the lower ball joint would be loose in once the new ball joint was pressed in. Not a easy job,so take notes before to start on this one. It may be cheaper to buy the whole new lower control arm for it
