So I'm attempting to change my ball joints on my rough country UCA's. Of course it won't go smoothly. So first of all when I detached the spindle it kind of pulled my front axle out about a half inch, had some gear fluid leak. **** me, not sure what to do about that or what to think of it. Second of all of course the pressing set from autozone is like 2/8" too small to fit properly to press out the ball joints, that is if I'm setting it up right. Any suggestions on either of these problems would be so grateful

Just push back the axle and add fluid, and for the ball the ball joint, barrow press tools from auto zone, if the uca is out, just hammer the ball joint out, you might have to cut the threaded part so it's easier to hammer out

That's a relief about the axle, I'm gonna go borrow another set with more pieces from auto zone. The one I got only had a few pieces. Hopefully I can get it out with that
