New Control Arm with Ball Joint from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ic/1ASF...
Control arms are a crucial part of the suspension system of your vehicle. They not only carry the load of the vehicle to the wheel, but they typically also maintain its alignment. Control arms are typically large and strong, so you may be surprised it needs replacing. They contain rubber bushings for smoother rides at the cost of eventual wear, or integrated ball joints that require replacing the entire arm when they wear. This video shows you how to install a new quality TRQ lower control arm with ball joint in your 2000-2006 Chevy Tahoe.

I must have watched this like 5 times while changing my upper control arm. Excellent video!
What if the upper control arm shackles are rusted pretty thin? Is there a replacement part that can be welded in?
Do not forget to install a cotter pin through the ball joint crown nut.
How come the control arm you installed has a grease fitting but the ones I ordered from yall dont?

Are the torque specs the same for a 02 suburban 1500?
What if you forgot to set the cams on the upper control arm what do you do then

What if my bolts want back out of the control arm where the cam screw are

Question for anyone that may know my truck passenger side tire won’t turn left or right at all but my driver side does the other day I was making a u turn and heard a loud pop.. I just had my pitman arms replaced on both sides any idea what it could be? I have a 03 Chevy Tahoe
If i put my 6 inch lift with the rc control arms they'll fit ??
Ok I bought these control arms from you guys through 1A auto and that bolt turns it has an Allen wrench fitting on the bottom with no room to get an Allen wrench in on top of the CV boot. This video shows him just tighten it like it’s nothing.

Might be too late but when it keeps turning just pry down on the control arm so that the ball joint gets stuck in the knuckle as you tighten.
Are these ball joints replaceable or do I have to change the whole arm

Replaceable. But they ,at leason my Tahoe, are the type where the rubber boot must be pressed on the ball joints(uppers) also.
Can you change just the ball joint,or does the complete arm have to be replaced?

Might as well change the whole thing out the bushings in the control arm go bad also. But to answer your question no you don't have to change the whole control arm out.
I did this to my van .. chevy Express and now they say it needs a hole .. So I can get the wheel alignment... I dont understand
You don't show jack placement
Im sooo glad i dont live in the north. I couldn't stand having to beat everything out like that 😂
Do I need adjustable control arm or a non adjustable? 2005 Tahoe Z71 4wd
