I didn't blaze any new trails, but I managed to install the Dexter EZ Flex Equalizer kit in 4 hours .
The cheapest ball joint tool I could find was $100 so I resorted to a C Clamp and various sockets to do the bolt release and the bushing install.
The only criticism is that my kit did NOT have the 2 equalizer hanger bolts. I got the nuts....but no bolts. It forced me to use the old bolts and nuts with some Loctite.
No biggy...but it would have been nice to have all new.
