it is really best to tighten the inner control arms mounts with the suspension at ride height.

I know the video says this a for a 1.8. would it be the same for a 2.8?

@spprof Nice one. Where did you find your parts from?

Joe,
I bought the video from you and it was money well spent. I don't think I would have gotten that pinch bolt out without your idea. I'm not a mechanic but in these times where money needs to be saved I try to do as much wrenching on my own cars as possible. With the money saved I can buy whatever tools are necessary for the job and this video was one of them. Instead of paying someone $245 for replacement of 1 control arm I was able to replace all 8 for under $225 including tools.

That is covered in the video. There are a few methods, but the one I use seems to work best for me.

Good video, but what do you do if your pinch bolt refuses to loosen up and come out?
