This is so awesome. Thanks for the vid. Better than paying dealership $1,000 + to do it.

[@DannyGruesome]

Be sure to get an alignment immediately after

[@BPoweredLove]

4:15 You're right, so that why I jack it up without the wheel on to load the suspension up.
Great video!

If u are having trouble putting the bolts in, make sure to clean them since if the threads are rusty u probably won’t be able to get it in

You tighten the lower control arm bushing on the air like that does it will be damaged when you put the tire on

[@FionaRipley]

only 42 ft lbs for the ball joint bolt? that seems a bit light. I cant find the spec anywhere, hope your right just followed this video yesterday!

[@quentinchambers5148]

What was the second bolt you removed

[@NRASUPPORTER1911]

Will this car need an alignment after changing the lower control arm? Or will it affect anything

What’s a good source for those torque specs?
