Instead of beating the new control arm with the sledge, there's a specific way to correctly install it. Install the right side first and as you're putting it in, raise the left side higher than the right and as you're getting the right side in further, drop it to install it on the left. It took me a few minutes to figure it out but after the light went off in my head, I was able to get both lower control arms in quickly.

This is good work, Frank. You'd be a great maintenance manager at my company. It's out in TN but still!

How did you get the nut off that the brake lines are under? My mechanic is having major issues trying to get that one broke loose as there is little to no room to get a wrench on it..and a socket wrench is too big for the work space..
