For everyone trying to do this at home, please be careful not to dislodge the inside of your cv axels that’s what I did and it was a pain to put it back into place while it’s on the car I recommend removing the axels nut for play

Real talk thanks for the video. I took mine on for an alignment and they told me $1700 subframe would have to be dropped. I was looking and I figured it was able to do with the mount off.

Out of all the video's on this out there, this is the best one out there on this from my perspective. I like your can do attitude and down to earth approach.. Here's my feedback from me and my 3lb bitch ass hammer.. ;-). Shop wanted $1500 labor on the control arms and $500 on the axles... and double the price of the parts.. I did the control arms, lower ball joints, motor mounts, axles, and tie rods for $400 in parts ( + some tools I needed) and THIS VIDEO helped me get it done. THANKS! Others comments as well!! I learned a lot, but definitely wanted to come back and say what worked for me for the next guy that comes along...When raising the engine/transmission (depending on which side your doing), I found that you need to take out the bolts on the front motor mount (3 on the bottom) as well.. Also, probably wouldn't hurt to take out the top nut on the other side motor mount as well.. that allows the engine/tranny to move freely... a few extra wood blocks on top of the jack make it easier to raise the engine without any issues.. That allows you to easily to pull the mount out with no finessing... To avoid banging and prying on the control arms so much, just remove all the bolts including the lower ball joint ones and pull the axle out of the hub. You need the axle out to get that crown nut off the lower ball joint..(You might as well do the mounts, ball joints, and tie rods at the same time since parts are so cheap) Then just jack up the hub / rotor to the right level from the get go so that the control arm hangs freely.... once the hub/rotor is at the right level and theres nothing in the way or holding the control arm down it just comes right out.. that way you avoid all the prying on the way out and all that bangin' on that bolt on the way back in.. Also, I did the axles as well and one of them was frozen in.. after a lot of blaster and banging on it, I went an picked up a 'hub puller'.. put an impact wrench on the hub puller and it popped right out... Thanks again!

Yes suspension work can be costly but for some people it’s just easier to just let a shop do it. I’d say if you have the tools and knowledge then go for it. Save some money 💰

@briandmckeown72
@briandmckeown72 Ай бұрын
Yes. Disconnect the top sway bar ends from the shock each side. Both sides should be in the air. Only a small amount more of prep and it wouldn't require so much hammer (but for the rust on our old girls...) The overtravel piece is still available and very cheap through Toyota/Lexus. Reuse it or get another one. Washer packing is not recommended.

Why Lexus put the mounts there 🤦 I was changing the lower mounts on my wife ES350 today and realized that mount was blocking one of the bolts. Smh. I'm not using power tools so I'll just have to buy another jack to lift it enough to loosen that one bolt when I try again on Thursday.
