This video shows you how to install new front lower control arms with ball joint from TRQ on your 2009-2014 Nissan Maxima. Control arms are a crucial part of the suspension system of your vehicle. They not only carry the load of the vehicle to the wheel, but they typically also maintain its alignment. Control arms are typically large and strong, so you may be surprised it needs replacing. They contain rubber bushings for smoother rides at the cost of eventual wear, or integrated ball joints that require replacing the entire arm when they wear.

This repair was done on a 2010 Nissan Maxima S 3.5L Sedan 4-Door FWD Automatic and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
