i'll be changing out all my front end control arms, uppers and lowers on both sides as well as inner and outer tie rods tomorrow and monday. if there is interest, i'll take pics and work on a DIY. i guess i've never done it so it will kind of be a learning experience for me too, but i'm sure i could write up a good DIY

 

What a way to spend passover. The more write ups the better in my mind. I wish I would have taken a couple pictures of it, when I changed mine. I ran into a couple issues I think most write ups don't prepare you for. Like when the bottom control arms, or top for that matter, seize to the hub. I had to jack the car up and sledgehammer both sides out. The top ones were a nightmare and a half. So yeah do it if you have the patience

 

my front end has been apart enough. when i put my coilovers in, i was smart and flipped the front upper control arm bolt around so it can be pulled out in case i ever wanted to do control arms. it enables the bolt to be removed without taking the whole strut assembly out. and my pinch bolt has been replaced with a stainless one for over a year. if anything else is seized, ill just use an air hammer. i will probably make it look easier than it will be for most, but i figured a write up may help some out

 

I'd say go for it. Control arms, tie rod ends, sway bar end links, and shocks are all on my list for this spring as well.

 

there is an excellent 4 part control arm DIY right here on the Forum.

 

well if there is already a diy guess theres not much point in doing another. ill havent seen it but ill look now
