It's much easier if you 1) remove wheel hub, 2) Pop the upper control arm ball joint loose (just hit with hammer on the side (don't use fork if you want to to not damage it), 3) pop the lower joint loose, 4) disconnect the 2 bushing bolts. ... and the exact reverse for install.

Good job! I had Struts installed, but the top nut that holds it together come loose and off completely. So I'm looking for a solution to release the strut without letting the spring come flying out since nothing is holding it in place but the bolt that holds the strut in place. So will try this out with caution in mind. Great video, thanks!

How did you guys break the hub nut with the LCAs loose (to disconnect the half axle) ? Stuck at that point right now

I'll be doing something like that to my Xterra soon. Figured I'd see what I'll run into before I'm knee deep in it. Do you know what coilovers and upper control arms he's running on his Xterra ?
@JDubWrenching3 жыл бұрын
I know that he is running the Fox 2.0 Coilovers and I'm pretty sure they are the stock upper control arms.
@madnigerian3 жыл бұрын
Fox coilovers, 3" rough country spacers, spc upper control arms (trimmed coil bucket) and stock lower control arms

The only reason I watched this video was to see how you got that ball joint the rest of the way out of the spindle, and you didn’t show that in the video. i’m curious how you got it out after removing the parts that were in the way, e.g., half shaft. I was only able to get mine about a half inch of the way out with a pickle fork. and then spent a couple hours trying to get the rest of the way out with no luck.

Did you watch the video? He explains that they have to run to autozone to get a socket that would fit the spindle nut so they can disconnect the axle from the hub, then have the clearance to get the rest of the LCA outta there. If you are confused about that part you would use an impact on the spindle nut, or breaker bar depending on what region you live in LOL. NE for me. They skipped the part that they already explained, plus when they are reversing the process (putting the new LCA in) you can connect to the dots anyway..... everything is just in reverse.

Why did a buy a 1st gen xterra the lower control arm is the hardest thing to replace. Even the timing belt is easier.

Great video but please be aware of rockauto parts for Nissan. I ordered Timken wheels bearings for my 2005 xterra and received aftermarket Chinese wheel bearings in a timken box. They are a fraud.
