Removal and Installation
CAUTION: Suspension fasteners are critical parts because they affect performance of vital parts and systems and their failure can result in
major service expense. A new part with the same part number must be installed if installation becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement
part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to make sure of correct retention of these
parts.
CAUTION: Suspension bushing fasteners must be tightened with the weight of the vehicle resting on the wheel and tires.
1. Remove the wheel and tire assembly.
2. Position a suitable jackstand under the lower arm.
3. Remove and discard the upper arm outboard bolt and nut.
^
To install, tighten to 150 Nm (111 ft. lbs).
4. Carefully lower the lower arm and remove the jack.
5. Position the jackstand under the subframe.
6. NOTE: The upper arm inboard bolt cannot be removed without first lowering the subframe.
