Upper Ball Joint Removal Tool

The PROFORGED Upper Ball Joint Removal Tool (Part Number 124-10002) is a specialized press socket designed for disassembly and removal of upper ball joints on Mopar A-Body vehicles from 1960 to 1972. This 1/2-inch drive tool features black oxide steel construction, delivering the precision fit and durability required for suspension work on classic Mopar platforms. Built to work within the tight geometry of vintage suspension systems, this removal tool eliminates guesswork when accessing and pressing out ball joints without risk of thread damage or component slippage.

The black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance and reduces surface wear when in contact with fasteners and suspension components. At 1.4 pounds with compact dimensions of 3 x 2.8 x 4.4 inches, the tool integrates smoothly into standard 1/2-inch drive socket sets and works with hydraulic presses, arbor presses, or manual press frames. The socket's internal geometry is engineered to match the OEM ball joint specifications on these classic A-Body chassis, ensuring solid seating and centered load distribution during removal operations. This prevents the common failure modes—chattering, cone slippage, and incomplete joint separation—that occur when using incorrect or improvised tooling.

Technicians, restoration shops, and serious DIY builders working on 1960–1972 Dodge, Plymouth, and Chrysler A-Body vehicles (Duster, Valiant, Barracuda, and road runner models) will find this tool essential for professional-grade suspension service. Whether performing a complete frame-off restoration or routine suspension maintenance, the PROFORGED Upper Ball Joint Removal Tool eliminates the risk of destroying irreplaceable vintage ball joint components and ensures repeatable, accurate joint removal every time.
