AW: [DML] Replacing lower ball joints

["Elvis Nocita" <elvisnocita@xxxxxx>]

Hey Brian, thank you.

how thick is such a collar ?
If you still want to install the clip on top of the balljoint,
then it can be only less than a millimeter ?!?

Elvis,

I don't have a picture of the reinforcing collars by themselves, but I 
added a picture of them installed in the Photos area (PJ Grady Ball 
Joint Reinforcement Collar album).

Rob should chime in on the specifics, but the collars press onto the 
control arms first, then the ball joints are pressed in. 

The collars just "beef-up" the thin flange that holds the ball joint 
in place.
