Preparations for removing the ball from the stub axle
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Volvo C70, 2001 Volvo C70, 2000 Volvo C70, 1999 Volvo C70, and 1998 Volvo C70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Tap the ball joint off the stub axle. Use a socket as a spacer.
NOTE:
The inner diameter of the socket must be larger than the outer diameter of the cover. This is to prevent damage to the cover.
Spray the ball joint with rust penetrator again.
