I'm guessing you mean ball joint???

camber isn't a part its a measurement

"Camber is the angle made by the steering wheel of a wheeled vehicle; specifically, it is the angle between the vertical axis of the wheel and the vertical axis of the vehicle when viewed from the front or rear. It is used in the design of steering and suspension." from wiki

i believe its the ball joint on the top that looks almost like a horseshoe. i cant remove it...i've read that all you have to is hit it on the side and it'll come down. i've tried but no luck.

yeah that's the upper ball joint, hit the side of where the ball joint goes through, and use a big hammer if you have one like a 3 or 4 lb hammer

I've personaly never had much luck with that method even with a 4 lb hammer, but other people can do it this way easily.

I use a pitman arm puller,http://www.google.com/products?hl=en...ed=0CBsQzAMwAA it was like $20 and it works great, most auto parts stores have these.
