Does anyone know how to install the upper ball joint on a 96 civic without the control arm. I have a new ball joint for the control arm so what is the correct way to install it?

the only seperate ball joints i know of avail are the progress adjustables (junk 3 mo. old mine went bad) dont use em you have to press out your factory upper then use the large jam nut to put it in but otherwise ive never seen a factory availible without the control arm
 
The only way to seperate that kind of ball joints is to drill it out. And even that is not really possible unless you are creative and patient.
