Anybody with es control arm bushing directions?

I bought my bushings used already installed onto the lcas. I just need to know how tight the nut holding the pin on needs to be.

Good luck in replacing the arm. I had some issue with the rusted buts that striped on me. Besides that I had fun replacing it.

Yes the 27mm nut.
No luck was needed. I have pulled at least 10 maxima lcas and have never had a problem other then the swaybar endlink.
