Replaced Lower Control Arms today...

First off... I apologize for not having pics. However, it's a fairly simple job if you know how to use tools. It took about 2 hours... most of that was figuring out the right side. Once I completed the first one, the second one took 10 mins max. If I had to do it again... 30 mins... easy. You do not need a ball joint separator tool. Once they're unscrewed, they just pull out. The star socket I used was an E22. I had to purchase a set off Amazon for $15. I also needed both 21mm and 22mm wrenches along with a torque wrench and a breaker bar. To make things easy, i used my impact wrench to loosen them up. After that it was just removing and reinstalling the parts.
