Nobody makes a video on how to do this. People say it's best to just get an aftermarket arm. Two idiots fire up the old CarCringe KZbin Channel after 2 years of inactivity and prove these people wrong. All you need is a ball joint press and some choice cutting/mass destruction tools. More videos to come this summer.
OUTER BALL JOINT:
31126758510
NOTE! Do not get the OE part with that exposed tab/clip on it. Run a Meyle HD outer. They're so cheap and very durable and a direct fit. This is what we used, and it works great. They're cheap on FCP Euro right now. www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw-...
INNER BALL JOINT:

NOTE! This ball joint has little indentations that I was told to line up upon install. This is why you saw us make a mark on the control arm. Also, this ball joint is subjected to lesser strains and is more shielded from the elements compared to the outer, so run whichever quality or brand you choose. Febi has been nothing but a success for me, with every single part I've purchased, and they're such a reasonable price. I can't say the same about Uro, however, but your mileage may very.
