To carry out this repair, first gather the necessary tools, namely a fork puller to detach the wishbone eye from the ball joint and a socket spanner (a ball-ended spanner with teeth) to unscrew the ball joint from the hub support using a tube as a lever.

Start by lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheel.

Unscrew the nut securing the ball joint to the wishbone and use the fork puller to separate the two components. Then use the socket spanner and lever to unscrew the old ball joint and screw in the new one, securing it to the wishbone with a new nut.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
