Hey guys I own a 97 lsc and the upper ball joints are worn out and I will be repalcing the upper control arms since you can't get just the ball joint. I looked it through and it seems like a perty easy job but I just wanna make sure is there anything special I have to do or watch for when im chaning them do I have to do anything to the airbags? also when i remove the bolts will there be any kind of load that I should watch for before i remove the bolts? thanks
 
RE: Changing upper control arms.

The job is easier if you buy yourself a Gearwrench. Its 5 degree ratchet is needed to remove the nut on the driver's side. Its slow, but at least you do not have to mess around with your master cyl.

How much do the upper arm cost ???? OH, What Vortech kit is that on your Mark VIII ?
 
RE: Changing upper control arms.

They run about $70 a piece from rockauto.com

It's a vortech e-trim for a 2001 cobra with a 1998 cobra bracket.

So you can't buy it as a kit ? I have been thinking about putting one on my Mark VIII. I have had a few blower on My Mustang I use to have (S & T-trims ) I have also Had a number of blowers on my 94 Lightning ( A,S & now a J-trim mondo and a XX-trim on the way).
