    This is exactly what I want to see in a tutorial video, which makes a difference between an "ok" video, and a video that is awesome! Yes, showing us what tools, sockets, and other equipment is a great way to begin a job like this.

    I have a 2006 300c single owner with 269K. I have rebuilt the engine, transmission, replaced every mechanical part on there, but suspension. I have already replaced upper control arms and rotors as well. But now I am doing shocks struts and have a 10 piece suspension kit that covers all the other arms and links that I haven't done already. After tomorrow I should have a smooth ride.
    And I can pretty much guarantee that I will be successful thanks to your video. =) I am too cheap to pay for alldata

The rubber bushings are all worn on the rear control arms on my 14' Charger.

    Outstanding! You’re definitely not a lazy guy, and I wish I had your luck/skill getting front end’s apart, especially the sway bar links. A question if you can: What happens if you tighten the upper control arm bolts with the wheel up? I only had time to do the passenger side upper arm on my Charger because all the bolts took so long to deal with, and that’s what I did. Now it’s rattling like hell so I think I’m gonna rebuild everything. It’s got 190K miles on it.

    • @SwanCanFixIt
      @SwanCanFixIt  3 года назад +4

      If you tighten the control arm all the way when it’s in the air it just adds some extra strain on the bushings once it’s lowered down. One thing to check for rattling would to make sure the sway bar links are tightened down all the way and the rubber sway bushings are still in good shape. Noticed a clanking sound after driving it around for a little while and it ended up just being the sway bar links weren’t fully tightened down and that fixed it for me

  • @Steubenville_PoPo
    @Steubenville_PoPo 2 месяца назад

    When tightening control arm bushings you should lower the weight of the car down onto the lower control arm to compress the spring because you will then be at the midpoint of travel. If you tighten them at the end of travel which is where you are, it puts more twisting strain on the rubber bushing and wears out quicker.

    i was having cluking coming out of my front end and i checked every thing out all my bushings ball joints shit like that were fine what i found is that the sub frame connecting bolt head snapped off. i started searching challenger web sights and found alot of people having this issue. behind the tire theres a peice of tape like substance glued over a body access hole that tape falls off and moisture gets in, travels down the bolt and rots the bolt as well as sub frame from inside. its not just challengers also chargers magnums on lady even said her van had this problem. if your sub frame is rotting the thru bolt has two sets of threads on them the bolt is like 8 inches long and near the head of bolt are threads that are supposed to thread to sub frame. now with head snapped off i was working on ways to get that bolt out cause dodge will tell you you need a new subframe (engine cradle) cause threads are stripped. or they wont tell you and change bolt that might last a while but without those bottom threads,the bolt is helpless. in this video i can see the bolt on the side hes working on but could be the other side. on my car its the passenger side thats bad but when im driving it sounds like the drivers side. so im working on three different ways of fixing this problem without changing sub frame dodge will charge u thousands.a new cradle five fifty to seven hundred dollars. n then u better hope u got the right one. the first thing i will do is try to drill a hole in the bolt ane use a e-z out type bolt remover also lubercate the top of bolt thru the window behind wheel. if that dont work i will see if theres a reverse tap and bolt that i can tap in and since its reverse as i tighten tapped bolt it should loosen frame bolt. next i will cut the window open to get to nut which has a locking washer on it (not a lock washer) i had to stick my camera in the hand hole n take photos to see in there. now if the threads on the bottom are stripped i will try to weld the washer that comes with the bolt on to the bolt then weld the washer to the body after in stalling it. i might just skip all that and weld the sub frame to the frame. but that bolt will still be in there dangling around. i dont think it will make much noise if the frame is not bouncing around. if anybody is having this problem contact the national highway traffic safety administration 1-888-327-4236 they are in charge of recalls. most times you have to change the engine cradle due to accidents and they got bent. most likely this is what caused your accident.

    • @SwanCanFixIt
      @SwanCanFixIt  3 года назад

      Glad this video is helping with the process. Unfortunately I didn’t end up doing the ball joints in the video, but yes you will want to press the old ones out and then press the new ones in. You can rent a ball joint press from any local auto parts store like autozone and it should be fairly easy to do. Press will go right over the new ball joint when it’s put in the control arm and then tighten and press it in until it’s fully seated into the hole. Hope this helps!

    I'm 2 full days in doing this and can't even get the old parts off one side. It's definitely a difficult job!

      Hope you were able to get it done. I know it’s definitely not an easy job to get the older parts off, especially if there’s any rust involved. Hopefully the video helped some

    $450!!!???? WOW are those parts good quality, I replace my 2008 upper control arms OEM part purchased on ebay (forget the dealer) but still paid like $500 JUST FOR THOSE 2 PARTS!!!!

      Yeah honestly these kits are pretty solid. The car has been driven 10,000+ miles since changing out the old parts and the suspension still feels very tight 👍🏼

    Doesn't cover 2010. Because mine has the swaybar is mounted against the back of the control arm and can't get to both ends of the bolt.

    Might come off a little abrasive but give us your estimate on how much time this took ya?? I'm 10 hours into it... (doing the other lower control arms, press in ball joints, sway bar bushings as well) and mostly have all the new stuff attached to the car. Press ins are being extreme tho.
    Anyone care to throw out a number on time this is supposed to take to rebuild the entire front suspension on this turd- bucket?? I'd be grateful to know. Thnx
    Good vid btw

    Quick tip bro: Instead of dropping the car, use a jack to get the wheel to about ride height.

    these parts didn't look that bad, what was the reason ALL these parts needed to be replaced? Or do you just replace all these when you replace all this when you replace the cabin filter?

    • @SwanCanFixIt
      @SwanCanFixIt  2 года назад +1

      Front suspension was clunking and making noises when turning so figured for how cheap this kit was, might as well just change out all the parts while I’m at it instead of guessing what might be causing the problem

      Why would he press out brand new ball joints? The new upper arm comes with the ball joint installed like every other upper arm on the planet, and the lower ball joint is also brand new???

    Hah, without inner and outer tie rods along with upper control arms not included costed me $700 to do everything you did. But I did use moog and Monroe as all my parts and I did use summit racing as rock auto has sent me fake moogs before.

    • @SwanCanFixIt
      @SwanCanFixIt  2 года назад

      That’s not bad. Better than $2,000+ at the dealership. Yeah Rock auto is good for a budget build more than longevity compared to what else is out there

      Yep it was roughly $450-$500 for the parts I bought from 1Aauto. Parts are Chinese, but have been holding up just fine the past 20,000 miles. Much better than how it was previously
