so...ball joints...

The tool is reversible for pressing it out then back in if it's the C clamp style.

yeah thats the one but my question is will it be able to break the welds by itself?

[Fierofool]

No.  They will need to be ground off or chiseled.  A small cutting wheel in a power drill will do the trick.  I have a drill and I think we could find the wheel at Ace.

okie dokie i have to figure out which day im going to be off either tomorrow or friday ill let you know though because really also depends on if lee can help me get it done before this weekend because i really need to fix the alignment asap so i dont waste a set of tires...

On my 88, the lower ball joints were not welded. I was told by someone that some are welded, and some are not. Maybe when pressed in at the factory, depending on how much pressure was required to press them, a decision was made to weld or not. Anyhow, my new Rodney ball joint is pressed in, with a snap ring. It survived the run, and the last trial run before that, so I recon it's OK.

ok got my upper ball joints in yesturday thanks to Charlie! and currently im sitting at NTB and they are getting it set up! And they are only Charging me $50 since iv all ready paid for the alignment. But, to everyone considering going here one of the managers told me that they are not going to sell alignments on fieros for $80 you will have to pay $120 here. BUT, i will say they know what they are doing so overall your choice.
