In this video I show the steps and procedures necessary to replace a lower control arm & ball joint on a 2015 and newer F-150. Overall the job is not too difficult however there are some tips and tricks I show along the way to make the job go by a little easier. The truck we are working on today is a 2015 Ford XL 2wd.. We are experiencing some play in the lower driver side ball joint. I am replacing the whole control arm due to the age of the vehicle and the mileage. It is possible to press a new ball joint into the existing control arm however it’s much quicker just to replace the whole unit. Below are links to parts and tools that are used during this video thank you for watching
