What is this, Homebrew Toyota? Well... My neighbour was mentioning replacing the front suspension on his work vehicle. I told him now is the time while I am not working a day-to-day job. I got all the parts ordered up and brought the car in.
Initially I was going to make the repairs into two videos. Time was constrained due to this being a taxi, so I only have one video of how to replace the ball joints. Toyota designed these to bolt onto the control arm and no pressing or special tools are required. These ball joints are also very durable and long lasting from the factory. Changing them on this high mileage car was preventative maintenance more than anything.
Thanks for watching! Now I have the garage freed up and I am ready to pull the Forester in for another overhaul. So don't fret, more Subaru content is coming up. STAY TUNED!
