Thanks, from what I can tell only 2 such "lift type" ball joint tools exist.

The make you laugh$$$ Honda tool and the Napa tool, which is made by a company called Tool-Aid part no. TA-61900. I've still got one contact left in Ohio that works at a Honda dealer I'll see if he can hook me up for much less, else I'll purchase said other tool.

Tommorow I'm flushing the brake the system, I'll check all the joints for wear then. And decide if I'll even swap the new SPC kit in or go back to stock and install the Ingalls lower kits.

New ball joint boots can be had from Honda for $2.50 + another $3.90 for the retainer clip. The tool needed to installt he clips is $80 bucks, sigh.......I'll just buy a new kit then
