Has anyone replaced their rear (upper and lower) ball joints lately? I’ve got the old ones out but trying to decide which is better to install first. I can see tearing the boots trying to maneuver the control arms into place.

I did both a couple of months ago. My rear end was completely off the car but I wasn't exactly gentle and there weren't any issues.3.91 | CMP Subframe & RTAB Bushings | SMG (Relocated & Rebuilt) | ESS Gen 3 Supercharger | Redish | Beisan | GC Coilovers & ARCAs | Imola Interior | RE Rasp | RE Diablo | Storm Motorwerks Paddles | Will ZCPM3 Shift Knob | Apex ARC-8 19x9, 19x9.5 | Sony XAV-AX5000 | BAVSOUND | CSL & 255 SMG Upgrades | Tiag | Vert w/Hardtop

You just need to make sure you dont press on the inside of the bushing, which is the sleeve, and you'll be fine.
