U joints? Mercedes flex joints are so much better, just need two wrenches or a wrench and socket.
Also have a HF 20 ton, up in Aliante

Yeah......^. But did you get a dipstick ? Can you check your own fluids. No Thanks :) And Thank you Gullwing.

I should have kept mine, a 4runner with a solid front axle and Mercedes power plant, that would be a kicka$$ package.

Yeah, hated those years. Car comes in with low oil light... ok check through dash... low. add oil and check... sorry must wait................... :mad::mad::mad:
Then again the transmission dipstick was like $80 for years, then a few years ago I bought one for like $12

and you could have bought a dipstick... but yes dumb not to just have one.

Did you ever find a place to get this done? I'm in centennial and have a press... works on ball joints just fine... I did the entire suspension in my 1969 dart with it, thats the only reason I bought the dang thing.
