Any after market ball joint is a chore to install. It is because the body is deeper than a stock joint. So ultimately the press in deeper into the 'C' thus more friction.
If you're upgrading anyway later, why not just get a Crown joint from autozone. Cheap and much easier to install. The selling point of a poly, etc is they'll last, but you don't need longevity, if you're upgrading soon.
I second to not reuse. I had polys on my rubi 44 and when I got a prorock I bought new polys.
Autoparts stores will loan you a ball joint press, and you'll need to rent the 4x4 kit of adapters.
