How do you replace the front lower ball joint on an 2003 lancer?

To replace the front lower ball joint on a 2003 Mitsubishi Lancer, first, safely lift and secure the vehicle, then remove the wheel. Disconnect the lower control arm from the steering knuckle and any other components obstructing access to the ball joint. Use a ball joint press or a suitable tool to remove the old ball joint from the control arm and install the new one, ensuring it's properly seated. Reassemble the components, torque everything to specification, and reinstall the wheel.
