3-22-11 Suspension again.

The last thread is months old so I figured, start a new one. Not much on the last thread so I thought "Let's see if we can get some info this time.
I want to start the front end rebuild on my Chrylser, and have been having a hard time getting answers on where I can get the upper ball joint removal tool. Some say the van and truck one is right but I only have a 3/4 ton truck and they are not the same. Any help would be appreciated.

You say Chrysler and I think car but then you say van and truck so I'm lost (very easy to do BTW). What is the vehicle that you want to replace ball joints on?

You got me it's a 68 Chrysler New port.
The reason I mentioned the trucks is I read that the c-bodies shared the part with the light trucks. Mine are not the same size. There are definitely more than 2 sizes but there are two common sizes.
I know this is old but I still have work to do on this car and it might be soon.

So do a lot of folks, but I can't seem to get a straight answer on the size.
Got any help here?
