[DeTomaso] Fwd: Ball Joints

[Mike Drew]

Jack,

Only the upper rear ball joints are pressed in. The front ones simply unbolt. 

The rear ball joints have a rotational orientation. There is a notch cast into the upper surface which should point straight inwards towards the center of the car. 

Cheers!

Mike
