Good job man! Thanks!

Thank you so much for this video. It is great to see the process before attempting it, especially since most of us looking will likely do this maybe once in the life of our cars! Again, thanks!

Ok you did the easy part but what about replacing the 10 dollar bushing

John Padilla says:

Thanks for your video, with your help, I was able to replace both lower control arms on my 2006 HHR in about 3 1/2 hrs by myself breaks included!

Please help, the bolt with the bad bushing (same as yours) was really rusted, after a bunch of PB blaster it finally came loose, but now the bolt is just spinning… I’ve spent at least 10-15 spinning the bolt but it has yet to distance itself from the metal. any ideas on whats going on here?! thanks

Jonathan Phillips says:

Is there a specific brand that you would recommend?

Jonathan Phillips says:

Thank you so much! I think I’ll try this on my car. Maybe the front end will finally sound like it’s going to stay together.

Man I don’t know how you got that bolt off of the failed bushing so easily, you were really lucky, my friend and I changed the one on my cobalt and found that the center metal sleeve of the bushing was siezed to the bolt and we had to not only try to find a way to reach it with vice grips in it’s tiny compartment in the frame, but we had to heat it up with a torch to finally break it free, it was a pain in the ass even with air tools.

Yay great video!

Daniel Schiefer says:

Great job. My dad and I did this to my car today and used this video as a “how to”. Despite just a few issues getting the button bushing to line up, we got everything taken care of!
