Loosen the wheel lug nuts on the side to be disassembled, raise the front of vehicle, support it securely on jack stands and remove the wheel. On 2014 and earlier models, disconnect the stabilizer bar link from the control arm. Remove the nut and bolt to disconnect the lower ball joint from the steering knuckle. This involves removing the nut and the balljoint pinch bolt, and separating the ball joint from the steering knuckle. Proceed to remove the control front pivot bolt and spacer. Then, remove the two rear bushing bracket-to-frame bolts and remove the lower arm. Check the control arm for distortion and the bushings for wear, replacing parts as necessary. Do not attempt to straighten a bent control arm. Installation is the reverse of removal. When installing the control arm, leave the three arm-to-frame bolts (two rearward and one forward) finger tight until completing the installation of all other components. Tighten the three control arm fasteners to the specified torque after the vehicle has been lowered with its full weight resting on the ground. As an alternative, raise the outer end of the control arm to simulate normal ride height, then tighten the fasteners. It's a good idea to have the front wheel alignment checked and, if necessary, adjusted after this job has been performed.

Remove the nut and bolt, as well as the balljoint pinch bolt, to separate the ball joint from the steering knuckle.
