Complete rebuild on a 2500 HD Duramax using Moog parts. This will cover 2001 to 2010 GM 2500 3500 HD, 1500 will be similar with a few small changes.

This is exactly what I needed to get the same job done on my LLY. I also went with Moog, and had to get get a new steering gear box as well. I have probably rewatched the bearing and bushing pressing 20 times to get it right.

Important to note that you do not torque your control arms until they are sitting in their final resting position. Otherwise you could damage the mount bushings.

Got a tip for anyone putting that lower control arm rear position bushing in if they can’t hammer it to get it started. I tried with a hammer but it kept bouncing out and I couldn’t get it started and my ball joint tool was not big enough. I went and got a foot of threaded rod (9/16 or 5/8 - I can’t remember but it fit through the bushing opening), with a nut and washer on each side. I think I used one of the ball joint tool kit discs as well but it gave me what was effectively just a longer tool and I threaded it in far enough till I could use the normal tool.

Great video, I'm starting this rebuild this week. Ball joint question- "Harbor Freight Ball Joint Service Kit for 2WD and 4WD Vehicle" Do I need the add on kit for this work also? Thank you! 2001Suburban 2500 4x4.

Hi, I really enjoy your videos. Curious, how big of an improvement in ride quality and steering? I have the same truck and will tackle this job soon but also considering changing body mounts. I get quite a bit of jarring on rough roads and cant quite pinpoint if its control arm bushings or body mounts. Thanks in advance

It makes a huge difference! The body mounts are pricey, but i'm sure would also be a noticeable difference.

I didn't use one. I have in the past, but if you are completely disassembling like this you don't need it. Just make sure you support the lower arm when you pop the ball joint lose.

@@ccr6844 absolutely honestly I avoid moog, I got lower ball joints from them and it was more loose than the one I was replacing, better off going with Acdelco gold or if your looking to upgrade kryptonite is by far the best better design UCA ball joint and just a lot beefier their sway bar links, tie rods and controls are the best the other stuff you can shop around for but you also get a lifetime warranty
