    New Control Arm with Ball Joint from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ib/1ASF...
    This video shows you how to install new front upper control arms with ball joint from TRQ on your 2011-2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Control arms are a crucial part of the suspension system of your vehicle. They not only carry the load of the vehicle to the wheel, but they typically also maintain its alignment. Control arms are typically large and strong, so you may be surprised it needs replacing. They contain rubber bushings for smoother rides at the cost of eventual wear, or integrated ball joints that require replacing the entire arm when they wear.
    Estimated installation time for a professional technician is approximately: 5 hours 6 minutes

    Ok guys just an easier way instead of messing with the steering shaft use a chubby 18mm ratchet wrench and another 18mm or 17 mm or 16mm chubby on the other end that locks both wrenches together.. use electric tape to hold them together. I have big hands and able to pull up to take off the bolt saves so much time. Also no need to take off axel just loosen also take off shock bolt and just loosen top 3 nuts on top of shock. Pull the shock ahead and get someone to take out the bolt while you pull on the shock forward. It's very easy saves you big money. I'll try to have pics or video to help you out.

    So appreciated! This video got me through the process in my garage! I believe I need to get an alignment now, correct?

    What about the passenger side? Is there something to remove to gain better access to the back nut?
