My poor car has been sitting for 6 months. I've finished most of the work that needs done, but I need a new rotor pressed onto the driver's side steering knuckle, as well as the ball joint bolt that connects it to the lower control arm. I've called all the carquests in the area, & they either don't do the service, have broken machines, or their machinist is out of town for a couple weeks. Anyone know where I can get this done for a fair price?

ETA: my car is a 1992 Acura Integra

I'm no mechanic but a friend replaced the lower ball joints on my truck recently. We had to get a press from Advance Auto-deposit required but returnable.

tmleader. the installation is fairly easy, with the right tools. MOST auto part stores rent tools. UNLESS you're not mechanically inclined.

I can likely help you, depending on where your at.

guess I should ask what sort of car, and where you are at. I am moving my shop over the next few days to 73rd and washington, so will be busy but I will help you out.
