In this video I rebuild my original factory upper control arms from my 1995 GMC Suburban! This process will be similar to most other vehicles though not identical. I am not a professional please don't follow my advice. This video is purely for entertainment purposes.
I wanted to replace the aftermarket control arms currently in my truck with the original factory units and decided to rebuild them. Rebuilding meant new ball joints and new bushings. I bought Mevotech TTX ball joints and Mevotech control arm bushings. Though the ball joints went surprisingly easy the bushings were a lot more difficult to figure out. Ultimately I was able to remove the old bushings but had to employ a local shop to press in the new ones.
