if you are doing this in youre driveway, all i can say is get a twelve-pack. its only 5 bolts but can be a real PITA.

heres how to do it:

1) take off wheel2) cut pin on the crown nut(where the ball joint connects to the hub. when you are seperating the ball joint from the hub, hit the side of the hub, not the ball joint stud.3) then unbolt the swaybar(1st nut under LCA), and then the t/c rod(last 2 nuts under the LCA)4) unbolt the LCA from the subframe(1 big *** bolt)

to put the new one on, just reverse the process.

when tightening the crown nut on the ball joint keep tightening it so it pulls the LCA flush w/ the knuckle. then put in the lock-pin.
