Paul,. I do have a 3/4 breaker bar and 4 half inch drive air impact wrenches. I can't say that any of them are all that great but better than nothing. I'll even give you one.
Paul,I have the upper ball joint socket you need with the 3/4-1/2 adapter. You can use use it if you want.

It is a specially shaped socket. Yesterday I
cleaned the area around the upper ball joints, dosed them
with penetrating fluid, and repacked the wheel bearings.
Right now I'm thinking that I'll replace the lowers
myself along with the tie rod ends. They also mentioned
the radius arm bushing. I'm guessing they were
referring to the strut rod, right? If I can find a socket
for the uppers and depending on how much I beat myself up
doing the rest of it I may tackle the uppers. I've
been battling rheumatoid arthritis but now have medication
that has me feeling better than I have in many months. So
I'm feeling like I can tackle at least some of it.

took my 63 to the shop today for a front end alignment. I
had turned up the torsion bars for more ground
clearance. Well they told me I need new ball joints upper
and lower and new tie rod ends, plus a radius arm bushing
(?). They estimated the job at $1200. I'm thinking I
can do most of the work myself and save $$$$. I've
priced the parts on Rock Auto and they are probably less
than $200. Any pitfalls in doing this work?
