I already knew how to do this job, but watched the video to see if he used any tricks to make the job easier. I didn't learn anything I didn't already know, but I couldn't help but notice the use of the impact driver to torque all the bolts during reassembly. I'm sure that impact driver is every bit as accurate as a torque wrench, right? HA! If you've never snapped a ball joint stud, then you wouldn't realize the importance of not over-torquing them. I have had one snap while on the freeway and it almost cost me my life. Its fine to follow this guy's procedure, but I would highly recommend using a torque wrench to tighten each nut to its specified value during reassembly.

@killahjeep2 жыл бұрын
you dont need to remove the axle shaft, tie rod, or the swaybar link.. just remove the lower strut bolt, the 2 lower knuckle bolts (19mm), and then you can mark & loosen the LCA bolts to swing it lower.. and get a press on the ball joint.
@chrisharris77832 жыл бұрын
That's what I was thinking as I just replaced struts not to long ago. I'm getting ready to change ball joints soon so it's good to see your comment as I didn't see the need to remove everything else as well.

When you say mark and loosen the LCA bolts why do you need to mark them? I'm learning to do this job so asking all the questions lol

@@AaronLives34 it's so you can get the alignment close to what it was before getting the truck to an alignment rack. You mark the position of the cam bolt relative to the mount. You may see there are already markings on the bolt head & bracket..
