Title: Ball joints, control arms (bushings), and tie rods
Post by: duckdive on September 07, 2017, 11:47:36 am

I need to do my ball joints, control arms (bushings), and prob tie rods on my 1993 EV.

Wondering what I'm looking at in terms of the labor involved?  Also, would it be best to buy assemblies of the ball joint/control arm?

It isn't my daily driver, so I can take my time with the project.

Not to bad it took about an hour and a half each side to do upper, lower, strut, tierod inner and outer, and bearings. The upper took most of the time because I did not have the proper puller i used hammer and sockets.

Remember to include an alignment after doing this job.
