When I said pressed in I meant pressing a new ball joint into the knuckle.

If you bang the side of the knuckle with a heavy hammer it should loosen right away.

I know what you're asking, and I think the kit you linked to originally is the right kit, but I've never used one before, so I don't know how good they are. Let us know if it works for you, because I want to press new ball joints into my Accord's knuckles, too.

If you don't already have it, you'll also need one of the ball-joint seperator tools that the other guys linked to (or the Honda-specific one, which is similar to the one that mikegarrison linked to).

^^ I just ordered that and i will let you guys know. It costs $60 to have a shop press it in so I already saved money. BTW ball joints from certain year accords fit in the rear knuckle. Just an FYI for ya guys.
