Ford Fusion: Front Lower Control Arms / Tie Rod / Tire /Alignment - PART I

In this video we start the process of replacing the front lower control arms / ball joints and the outer tie rod end on this '09 Ford Fusion. It came into the shop with a customer complaint of a "shimmy" and "clunk" in the front end. Doesn't take long to find the worn suspension parts and broken belt in the tire! -Enjoy
