New Control Arm from 1AAuto.com http://1aau.to/ia/1ASFU00200

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. When those bushings run out, that can have a negative impact on the ride and safety of your vehicle. This video shows you how to install new control arms in your 2007-17 Jeep Wrangler.

Could I have my vehicle on the ground while changing the upper control arms?

Unless you have hydraulic press, just buy the whole part. I bought Moog bushings. Took them to tech school. My teacher eventually got them in with a press and a whole lot of hammering. *Edited spelling.

@DavidMarcy-pp6jv says:

What about the other bushings on the housing?

@cconnon1912 says:

You should have shown bushing replacements too. That’s what wears.
