Easy Control Arm Removal And Installation

Recommended Posts

Installation is the reverse of removal.

The bolts that secure the control arm to the subframe are torque to 51 ft*lbs and another 120 degrees.

The bolts that secure the control arm ball joint to the strut are torque to 37 ft*lbs

If you have a 93’ the ball joint can separate from the control arm and their bolts are torque to 13 ft*lbs and another 120 degrees.

Just want to add that the two inner control arm bolts should be re-installed but not tightened and torqued until the arm is raised to 'normal' riding height. This is so the control arm's rubber bushings is not stressed when the weight of the car puts the arm to the normal ride height.

Nice pictures!
