1984 300D turbo diesel; need to remove and replace upper and lower ball joints. I have the tools to remove the upper and lower ball joints, however installation is another matter. This Autozone Loan-A-Tool Ball Joint Service Set 21 piece looks like it might do the job.

Bump.

Can't confirm on a w123, but I have used this kit for other makes ball joints and control arm bushings etc. The kit is comprehensive enough that you will likely find a combo that works.

Yes, it seems that with 21 pieces I should be able to find fittings that will work.

They also have just an adapters master kit that works with that press. You can rent as many tools as you want, so you might consider getting both and the combo should give you what you need.
