The term “get a plyers”
Great video, thanks. I found out that a 13/16 fits more snug than a 21mm
You don’t need to jam a screwdriver in the pinch bolt just whack it with the mallet and it’ll come out
Thanks!
Y you didn't change that shot ball joint
Hey Chris Thanks again for your informative videos been saving lots of labor doing the work myself Thanks again 😀
Bro forgot the Saab 9-7……………..
And my 2004 Trailblazer sounds normal again. Thank you very much for this video bro!
I replaced my upper control arms on a Ram 1500 rwd because of squeaking. They still squeak after being replaced, any help?
Its to tight between the car and tire on my car to do that. Can I measure it and know what angle to tighten?
I just got my upper control arms from Rock Auto for my 2002 Bravada and I'll be working on it tomorrow morning. Thanks for the video.
Again here iam watching this video, really
Good man, even more
Cuz you had this trailblazer for me see how do that, I didn’t remember last time i watched, i just was doing yesterday this exactly same side, i just bended that frame part to used drinking tool. When i had it tightened at first i felt like it wasn’t right, cuz I remembered when loosing the ball joint bolt and hitting it up the control arm went up like if was a spring on tension so i loosened it again and
Dropped the car before tightening it again. Could be also unconscious memory of your video last time i watched. Iam fed up of this trailblazer but is actually not bad car, the issues is known by many so easy on diagnostics, the front differential is horrible design and yeah the Engineers or were drunk, completed their degrees with real bad grades or was sabotaging the company, maybe was their last day working on chevy and was a friday. Is nice ridin car still. For the ones who doesn’t live in snowee winters could just deactivate mechanically the front diferential
👍
Replace upper ball joint
Instead of using a Dremel (I don’t have one) I had to take the battery and tray out and sawzall the actual steel part of the car. After that I was golden. The rear part/plastic is real stubborn
