I'm pressing out my ball joints to get my pieces ready to be powdercoated. I pressed out a majority of the joints at work, however I deliberately didn't do four, because I wasn't sure. The two front suspension pieces are a tie rod and the C shaped member. They seem to be pressed in from the bottom and half of the housing is machined into the member. Can I buy a new bottom piece to press back in or do these ball joints need to stay in the pieces when I get them powdercoated?
