VBCWIZARD Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) Has anyone ever replaced the rear bushing on the front lower control arm? I would like to know what pressing tool was used and if the control arm needs to be taken off from the steering knuckle for this type of service. I've just replaced the ball joints and I don't want to damage the ball joint boots. I've never been able to separate a control arm from a steering knuckle without damaging the grease boots. I know that I could just get another control arm, ball joint, and bushing from rockauto.com for around a hundred bucks. I would like to keep as much of the original Ford parts as possible and not make a big project out of this. After I replaced the ball joints I noticed a tear in this bushing. Search on http://www.rockauto.com for MOOG Part # K80400/#80399{Control Arm w/Ball Joint} Frt Susp; Lower; LH; Incl. bushings. Thank you!
