In brief

Replace your car or truck’s entire front suspension—wheel bearing, ball joints, control arms, tie rod, strut, and axle—with clear guidance on pressing components, safe tie rod installation, and proper torque techniques. ChrisFix’s practical tips make this complex job more manageable, and the video includes a post-installation test drive to show improved handling. Best for DIYers tackling major suspension overhauls.

Description from the creator

Learn how to replace the ENTIRE front suspension of your car in this two episode series. Here I will show you how to install a brand new wheel bearing, ball joints, control arms, tie rod, strut, and axle.

The ball joint and wheel bearing has to be pressed into the knuckle and I have a bunch of tips and tricks to make that easy. I show how to properly install a tie rod (safely) and get an accurate measurement so you can get the car aligned. I also show you how to properly torque down bolts with bushings so you don't tear them. The rest of the suspension parts are pretty simple to install and then we go for a ride to see how much better the car handles!
