Did you install the control arms or have a shop do it? If you did the install how was it? Simple or was there alot involved?

i did them myself, very easy to do,like i said the hardest part was getting the old bushing out off the axle, other thatn that you need jack stands and a jack and do one side at a time, just 2 bolts,i used a screw driver to line the holes up to get the bolt in cause the axle will drop slighty,but its an easy job. My bushings were stuck in there so i had to drill them and wire brush the sticking parts out, but normally they just pop out.
