New Control Arm with Ball Joint from 1AAuto.com trq.video/ic-1...
This video shows you how to install new front control arms from TRQ on your 2009-2019 Ford Flex. Control arms are a crucial part of the suspension system of your vehicle. They not only carry the load of the vehicle to the wheel, but they typically also maintain its alignment. Control arms are typically large and strong, so you may be surprised it needs replacing. They contain rubber bushings for smoother rides at the cost of eventual wear, or integrated ball joints that require replacing the entire arm when they wear.
This repair was done on a 2013 Ford Flex SEL 3.5L Sport Utility 4-Door AWD Automatic and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2009 Ford Flex
2010 Ford Flex
2011 Ford Flex
2012 Ford Flex
2013 Ford Flex
2014 Ford Flex
2015 Ford Flex
2016 Ford Flex
2017 Ford Flex
2018 Ford Flex
2019 Ford Flex

I always remove ball joint first, makes removing rear control arm way easier

[@DEEEEEEEEEEEJ]

Thanks for this video! Since I see you're still working on the Flex, would you consider doing a video on the REAR wheel hub assembly? I've watched you do the front and it was fantastic! Thanks so much for everything you guys do!

Good job

This only works if you have a lift. You can get the part out, but you will never get it back in if you don't have a lift

Why wouldnt you take the ball joint out first?
