Great instructional video 👍 You remind me of my cousins Dad (Uncle) in Jersey. Would come up from NC every summer and stay for 2 or 3 weeks. Great times 👏🏻🇺🇸
Thanks for posting this very informative and helpful video. I was quoted $1,917 for upper / lower ball joint replacement. $120 and this video later my 99 Expedition runs like new again! Have a blessed day my friend.
Needs brake caliper hook and jack stands for safety. Likewise the upper control arm bushing bolts are to be tightened with weight of vehicle down on it.
Hey isn't your dust sheild supposed to face forward? I don't think it's supposed to be faced upwards. My 97 and 98 are both towards the front of the front of the knuckle
@@Jvcomet they told me to buy moog. I never replaced the lower control arm and they are expensive. The upper arm and both ball joints are not that bad. Not sure if i should replace the lower control arm. it is probably original.
If your just replacing the upper control arm. By itself. Do you have to take off the tie rod ? I said screw it got new arms that have ball joints pressed in already. Gonna tackle that this weekend on a 99f150 xlt 2wd
@@Jvcomet quick question. Since I’m literally just doing a upper arm replacement. Literally not doing anything else. Factory tire size. Should I be rushing to a alignment shop. Even with my ball joint going bad there isn’t any signs of issues on tire tread yet.
