Hello everyone here at the forum. I have a question regarding the replacement of the upper control arm bushings.Both sides are in bad shape and I need to replace them.What I would like to know is it ok to replace the bushings only or should I replace the complete upper control arms for both? I can get the complete control arms at a good price so if I have to,I can order both units.But,before I order the parts,I would like to know if its something I can do myself or does it have to be done with special tools that I might not have.
I have done a lot on this car but never anything to do with front end components.If you guys think that I am better off taking it to a front end mechanic or shop,I'll do that.Would I have to remove the control arm completely off to replace the bushings only or can it be done while in the car? Give me your opinion on the replacement of this parts. I tried to find a video on you tube on how to replace the parts but could not find anything on the Gbody.Thanks for your help and suggestions.
