I haven't posted much so I decided to do a DYI:
Heres the new ones->>
I started off by removing the old shitty 2-piece adjustable camber kit
somebody had previously installed
1st-remove the bolts connecting the old/stock assy. just above the strut bolts
2nd-Remove the cruise control cable bracket(makes it easier to remove bolt on driver side)
3rd-Remove the bolt from the bottom of the strut so the control arm can drop and come free
4th-Pull down the old/stock upper control arm so that u can remove it from the knuckle
-another view
5th-Remove the cotter pin from the castle nut and remove the stock UCA
use a rubber mallet or hammer if needed and tap the stock uca out.
6th-Install the NEW adjustable upper control arms. Lube the hole and lightly tap the new into place until in far enough so the castle nut fits properly with the cotter pin. (New uca's should come with new castle nuts and pins)
7th-Put the stock upper control arm assy-(shown in gold) back in its original place and bolt up the new UCA around the spring.
Now bolt the bottom of the strut (fork) back onto the control arm.
After that tighten the bolts under the hood and don't forget to put the cruise control bracket in place.**[/img]
