Hey guys,
I got some rose-joints that are particularly tight, they need to be loosened up, anyone have ideas as to how this can be done? Putting it on a vice and shaking isn't viable, as it just won't happen, lube/grease doesn't work.
Thanks in advance.

You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?
the keyword being 'loosen' not 'destroy'
LOL
would that really work?
Nooooooo idea.
Try getting a piece of metal that will fit through the hole in the rose joint and see if you can get some leverage on it?
Why do you need to loosen it anyway?

its a rose joint that replaces the ball joint on the lca.. no good for steering if its all stiff
new ball joints are stiff as fuck anyway.
Just put them in / on and they will loosen up after some driving.
Edit: also pics of said ball joints / LCA's.

id like to see pics of this also, i cant picture it in my head at the moment. ive only seen rose joints replacing the bush on the inner end of the LCA
Exactly what i'm thinking.

it'll be FINE, i have rose jointed rackends and they were stiff as hell when i first put them in but they're fine now :2thumbs:
i just put some gresse in my new ones (bottom arm)
then let the driving do the working.
they come stiff when new unless pre-lubed. lol
