Learn how to replace the ENTIRE front suspension of your car in this two episode series. First I will show you how to remove the wheel bearing, ball joints, control arms, tie rod, strut, and axle.
The ball joint and wheel bearing has to be pressed out of the knuckle and I have a bunch of tips and tricks to make that easy. The upper control arm ball joint and tie rod can get stuck in the knuckle so I show some tricks on how to easily remove that. The rest of the suspension parts are pretty simple to remove and replace.

Update: I rebuilt my front suspension and installed it myself. And Dude, I totally feel what you mean by feeling like a brand new car! I learned how to do it all thanks to your videos. Thank you!
Where is the Rear end 🙁 Thank you SO MUCH btw!
Awesome videos! I assume you have to cover the axle hole before pressure washing? Just a plastic bag and tape or nothing at all
