    The Lower Control Arm Removal and Replacement

    We do try to get back just as factory had them. But it's not likely very important, as many have missed that mark without any reported issue.

    The Lower Control Arm Removal and Replacement

    I just keep it simple. I've a small crow bar, I jamb in on bolt head. It really takes very little to hold (keep from spinning). Sometimes nothing is needed.

    Even if you don't mark or measure the T-bar, which you should. Look close, you'll see they have marks and or teeth, to help orient. Personally, I like to mark bars and threads or count of it's adjuster bolt. I then get back as near post position on assembly, while on jack-stands. I just find...

    The Lower Control Arm Removal and Replacement

    He's measured the position of LCA, while it's bushings were laden (weight on tires, vehicle level on ground). Then set LCA back to those measurements, for final torque. This "close enough method", is preferred by "some". Since getting swing with long arm of torque wrench, so difficult while...
