[QUOTE="jaydawg74, post: 953171, member: 65374"] I changed my uppers and lowers last summer. Not too hard of a job if you have the right tools. Look in the projects section for ideas. The uppers aren't really too bad. For the driver side, after you remove the pinch bolt, remove the cam bolts and the old arm will come right off. Put the new one on and get the cam bolts back to as close as you can to their original position (mark them before you remove). They can be a real pain to get out since there is very little room to maneuver. The passenger side is pretty simple. Take you truck STRAIT to a shop to get a front end alignment when you're done! For the lowers, like someone else said, you can borrow a ball joint press from a parts store for free. I got all of my parts from amazon.com for super cheap, I think I paid around $200.00 for 2 lowers and both upper control arms. [/QUOTE]
