I could watch this video over and over just because of how good and clear it was

So that lower control arm ball joint is not a press in type, where it connects to the knuckle ? Should just slide right up onto it, if I have the angles of the lower control arm correct ? Having a tough time with it. Going to undo what I've done and follow this video step for step. Very good, clear cut video ! Love these TRQ Videos.

I noticed in this video you didn’t have to remove the torsion bar. So is it safe to say on the GM trucks when replacing the lower control arms you don’t have to remove the torsion bar? TIA

+@4rmDEC2FRE In many cases, you do not need to completely remove the torsion bar when replacing the lower control arms on GM trucks. Instead, you can use a torsion bar tool to unload the torsion bar, allowing you to detach it from the control arm without fully removing it12. This method can save time and effort while ensuring the torsion bar remains properly aligned.

In this video the lower control arms are 139ft lbs and in your upper control arm video you torque them to 129 so which is it ? Also the lower shock mount bolts are 19 ft lbs in this video and 25 in the other. You guys need to be clear on the torque specs not the first time I’ve come across your videos where the torque specs are off

Definitely a northern truck.
