    Great video kid. I like the initiative you show. Small tip from a pro... when disconnecting the tie rod, strike the flat spot on the spindle with the hammer. Thats why its there. It will allow you to disconnect the tie rod easier than it was by striking the castle nut, and it also enables you to reuse the tie rod without risking damage to the stud, the threads, or the castle nut. The same trick works for ball joints as well. If you need further clarification please feel free to PM me. Im always happy to help a young gear head with their learning curve. Keep wrenching and doing such great videos. Good job man.

    Hello Thatlowdsg, I am helping with a K member on a Bullit, never done one before. Your video was very well done. One tip, loosen both control arm bolts and the control arm will swing down easily. Then take the front bolt completely out. Remove the nut from the rear bolt and the arm can be lifted enough to remove the rear bolt. Your mechanical skills combined with excellent videos are a great help. Keep going. AbueloJim

    If I was only doing this only to remove and reseal the oil pan gasket, would you recommend dropping the K member all the way for extra clearance? I mean, how much harder would it be to drop it completely as opposed to lowering it? Great video btw, extremely detailed and informative!

  • @Thatlowdsg

    I appreciate it but if you’re just doing that reseal follow this video as proceeds. Then once you have the K member completely loose just lower it with a jack slowly till you can get to the seal (break the bolts first while the K member is secure) but that should be it

    Hi, im wondering if you could help me out. I have a 2001 mustang gt and im having a loose steering issue. its very exaggerated at highway speeds, where it feels like the center of the wheel has play. almost like im driving on ice. so far ive replaced the steering shaft with a maximum motorsports solid one, replaced the rack and pinion (with new inner and outer tie rods) lower control arm ball joints, and front tires. Ive also added lowering springs with caster camber plates. still cant get rid of the sloppy feeling :/ not sure where else to go now.

    For you people that their car is not as clean as his is, cut your control arm bolts out. Lots of times they don't come out as easy as his did. Make sure you order the bolts as you just can't find them at any auto parts store. CJ Ponys and LMR have them. A ball joint stud tool and a tie rod stud tool will make removing them easier too. Oh get the spring back in is made a lot easier with a maximum motorsports front spring installation tool.
