    Tom them pics are kinda hard to see so for a ball joint flip your not actually flipping it just mounting it underneath the control arm instead of on top?

    I shamelessly stole the How2 so can't take blame or credit for pic quality.

    I also didn't come up with the term 'ball joint flip'. I agree that the term is misleading but it's caught on now so ...

    Actually even though the ball joint isn't being flipped, you are flipping from the upper side to the lower side of the mount.

    Put a smiley after you say that Bub.
