108? Not 105 or 110…., 108 ft lbs. Wonder how GMC came up with that one
🙂 Good job as usual. Odd to see a control arm that isn’t sprung. In
the old days before struts, you would have had to get into that coil
spring, always a scary deal for me…
Great job chris :-)), you made it look sooooo easy 🙂
Stupid manufacturers, clearance does matter, they want a kick in the butt
lol.
Im sorry to repeat myself but your so good at making excellent clarity
videos, enough information to get the job done, plus great tips for
difficult situations :-))
Shame you put that locktight on the bolt, i bet it was back out 10 mins
later for the next video lol.
My boots are deteriorated on my b4000 on my upper control arms, but there’s
0 play and can still see plenty of greese since it never rains in Texas.
I’ll replace them eventually, but i need new rear tires and a windshield.
But the control arms look like a quick job
This would be a good time to use ratcheting wrenches. You do an awesome
job. Your taking over Eric the car guys spot.He’ not making videos like he
used to.
chris do some more do and donts video
;d
Great video as always.
Would it be possible to quickly show how you diagnose the problem before
disassembling?
For instance, how did you know the control arm needed replacement.
Thanks for all the work!
hope the very next thing you did was take the wheel off and replace that
balljoint
I know that in all your videos you use the torque wrench. So do I need to
buy a book for torque specs. Or how do I find out what torque does the part
need? I dont want to buy a new book for every car that I buy.
Don’t even own a chevy, but you make good videos! Good job man.
Love the spanner trick Chris!
Fantastic work. Thanks.
Nice vid chris very explained chris i have a question 4 u i have 05 nissan
frontier that start to make a funny noise when goez in reverse i spoted it
comes from the drive shaft connects with therear differential is like
creaking like dryness for some reason maybe you have the answer for this
and what it causes thank you and keep it up champ

Come on Chris, buy a 2011 or older Grand Cherokee! :-)
Great video.
Dude, awesome video. I don’t even need to fix anything and I just watched
your whole video. Very informative and you get the best angles.
im looking in lifting my nissan frontier. Could you make a video on you
lifting your truck for me to get an example? your videos are great btw!
Mr. Chris Fix another excellent video brother. thank you for including the
field tricks. good video
Hey chris what will you recommend on the sockets,the six point or the
twelve point ones? which ones are better and why? I really want to know
your suggestion..thank you
I cannot believe you had to cut the body to get the bolt out. That is as
bad as it gets!
