I'm going to be replacing the ball joints on my control arms...the control arms are off the car. This looks like it takes some weird socket with 4 notches on it. Since there is no porsche dealership even close to me...where does one get this tool? And are there any tricks to the trade I should know about before I start cranking on it?
Thanks in advance. |
