Control arms are a crucial part of the suspension system of your vehicle. They not only carry the load of the vehicle to the wheel, but they typically also maintain its alignment. Control arms are typically large and strong, so you may be surprised it needs replacing. They contain rubber bushings for smoother rides at the cost of eventual wear. This video shows you how to install a new quality TRQ front lower rearward control arm in your 2006-10 Dodge Charger.

I know this is a 10 month old video but did you start on driver side.

I do believe it is recommended to put the weight of the car on the front suspension and then proceed to torque all the bushings replaced to the required torque spec in order to avoid premature wear on the bushings.

@jamesbarlowjr.3762 3 жыл бұрын

Liam Auigbelle That’s what I thought. I usually put a 4x4 block on the floor jack on the hat of the rotor and jack it up to where your almost lifting the vehicle then tighten.

yes you are correct, you must have the vehicle weight on the suspension before torquing down to correct specs. we do this to center the bushing to be at zero tension when the supsension is centered.

Yes, I did this on jack stands, so I put my floor jack under the rotor and lift it until the weight of the car was on the jack, then I torqued everything on. Still went to my local Firestone and they did an alignment, just to be safe

Does the ball joint move a certain way when I install it for the lower rearward control arm period for 2009 Dodge Challenger RT. Does the ball joint move in the 360 degrees

Is this the same procedure for a 2018 Charger SXT RWD? Everything looks very similar. Gotta replace this part. Found that the bushing is cracked.

It's really hit or miss with these videos on being helpful with fixing an SXT 2010 charger AWD.

has anyone used any of this TRQ stuff?how does it hold up over time?cant find any reviews

@pochomachuca9629 2 жыл бұрын

No, but I’ve seen videos of people who have bought and installed their products, and so far the reviews are not good. For the way they describe the quality of the product, I’ll put them on the same category as Detroit Axle

Bro your supposed torque the rubber bushings only after you preloaded the suspension 😮🥲 That would cause premature wear if not instant damage of the new bushing once you lower the vehicle and the full weight of the vehicle lands all the suspension and steering components where they are supposed to be with the wheels on and moving down the roads 🫠
