Replacing the control arms in a Suzuki Swift (2004-2010)

My car developed a clunking noise when I stop, and I fixed the problem by replacing the control arms.
It seems this problem is not uncommon in countries which have rough roads, so I made this simple instructional video so you can do it too.
It's not a complicated job, and fixing it yourself it'll save hundreds in labour at a mechanic.

thanks for the video

[@aminechelbeb9206]

Hello Thanks for this Video Is it possible to change juste the rubber part?

[@tomster7574]

got to get on your back to get more leverage. another way is to double up on the wrenches/spanners. while using the box end on the nut, and then another box end on the open other end wrench. stick the open end thru the box, play with it a bit until you figure out how it doubles its length using the second for extra leverage. or put a pipe on the ratchet, i often use the floor jack pipe. it its to long, mine comes in half. or go buy a pipe that fits your ratchet

What sizes of bolts and nuts do I need to replace the control arms? I don't want to use the old bolts.

[@kapilwaghmode9977]

sir plz make video on removing wiper washer tank & finding leakage of maruti swift

[@brooklynb3712]

When replacing the control arm, do you need to get a realignment?

[@tomster7574]

yes, i did. they are never exactly the same all bolted back up. half a mm out and the steering is out too. bushings and et all etc are never identical. but its been two years so you probably already found that out.

[@guillermorodriguesdotanque271]

Hi, do you have more videos about replacing Suzuki Swift Parts? Brakes, filters, etc.? Also website where to get those parts?

[@aspirinemaga]

man, how did you find out that the problem was coming exactly from that piece ?

[@bored1980]

+aspirinemaga I did a bit of googling beforehand and it turned out that the clunking noises often come from worn out control arms. I was about 75% certain that was the problem. I was right (thankfully!).
