Default hey guys - my control arms are off and getting defcon'd >>
cna i do a strut bushing/bearing refresh now without the arms in place? or will it be a pain?

i just want to know if it's better to get the arms back in and then do the strut bushings.

Default Depends on what shampoo you use..
j/k

I think it would be easier to drop the shocks/springs and get at the strut bushings but maybe I'm not thinking of something. Can't see why now wouldn't be a good time.

Default I'll be replacing control arms, suspension and bushings this weekend after a nice shower using
Head and Shoulders.....

Default Slightly easier...
Just because the strut will drop a little farther down without the control arm there.
