lol believe it or not, we did the passenger side, WITHOUT dropping subframe, and without cutting..just had to lift the axle and move as far as we can till the bolt with a nice hit from the bottom popped out..getting the new LCA in was cake..however getting the joint in the knuckle is where everything went wrong..it just was lining up and when it finally dude, the knuckle slipped and slit the rubber boot on the ball joint..this thing was brand new so this kinda sucked..it took a while whit A LOT of banging to get it in..is funny how swapping the LCA's was nothing and took like an hour but getting the joint in the knuckle just took forever..tommorow will be the driver side where we know we will have some cutting to do..




If you leave all the bolts out in the LCA to sub frame except the bolt that is right under the cv axle, it gives you just the right amount of movement to get the ball joint into place with out tearing up the new boot on the ball joint. I have done it this way and other ways. this is easist that i have found. I can put the passenger side back togather now in about 45 mins.
