      Hey man, I really appreciate that, I made this channel with exactly that in mind, I hate to look something up only to find the end result, no beginning, diagnosis or process, so I try to include as much info as I think is needed. good luck with your repair..

    Great video, thanks for this. A note for anyone doing this, don't be cheap and buy quality parts, particularly ball joints. Buy something like Moog. I had a cheap one fail on me with my Tacoma and thankfully I was going 5 MPH on a gravel road. Highway speeds I would have rolled the truck. That mistake cost me $1200 as I was 300 miles from home.

    Quick tip pressing in ball joints, ujoints and hub bearings. Take them and freeze them overnight before your install. When they have time to cool all the way through they shrink enough to almost fall into place. Takes a ton of the potential to damage stuff pressing it back in. I always wire brush my nuts and bolts and brake clean then off and apply a bit if antiseize on bolts that will have to come out for routine maintenance. Its extra work but future you will appreciate it when stuff just comes apart like it should without fighting you.

      Much thanks Rich, I hate looking up something on UA-cam only to see the end result with no explanation how they got there, so I try to include as much info as possible in my videos.

    I see you tighten the bushing bolts when the control arm still in the air ? Don’t you have to put the tire back on and tight it ?

      no, the control arm will still
      actually moves up and down even though the bolts are tightened, its designed to work that way..
