Replacing the Lower Control Arm, 2018 Hyundai Elantra SE #diy #automobile #cars

Replacing the Lower Control Arm, 2018 Hyundai Elantra SE In this episode we replace the lower control arm on the wrecked 2018 Hyundai Elantra SE. This job was far easier than even I had expected and I would rate it as an easy to mid level diy task. I would think the only time this would need to be completed would be for accident damage or a worn ball joint. The ball joint looks like it could be replaced independent of the control arm but for the price I think it's a one and done kind of a deal. Here's what it cost: The replacement control arm with new ball joint was about 60 bucks if memory serves and about a nickel for the new cotter pin. Time was less than an hour and I needed a big hammer and a basic metric socket set.
