Lower Ball Joints Raptor 700 - Are they replaceable?
I am buying a 700 2008 but the lower a-arms have thier paint brushed off and rusty. I'd like to remove and powdercoat. Are the ball joints removable and can I put them back in?

i think you will have to replace them after removal. my 99 big bear ball joints are installed with rivets. so that is the good old fashioned air chisel to get them out. the replacements should bolt in like most car ball joints.

Great I am looking forward to my future Raptor purchase. The hard part I think is getting the ball joint off the spindle.
