Lower control arm replacement
Lower control arm replacement
I know someone out here has done this themselves. How hard is it to replace both the lower control arms on a 2010 maxima? I have a lot of tools I've collected over the years working on my 68 Valiant. So I nmay have nearly everything I need to do the job.
Bil,
my Amazon order is sched for delivery so am in order to do surgery soon. Not hard, YouTube vids out there, I would suggest look at how they are set up under the car, trace all bolts and nuts leading up to removal and go in that sequence.
the part most folks missed is seating the arms (lower car so rubber bushings can seat properly, then tighten up)
takes about 2 hours for both if no lift, about 1 hour on a lift and power tools.

To me yes, getting back in position as the rubbers are new. I apply a light coat of grease over the rubber and a little knuckle juice to push in.
there’s about 4 or 5 total nuts and bolts to completely release.
My surgery set up for next week due to snail mail.
duh et, yuh can.
that video is on point!!!
