Have a 07 Wrx with steel lower control arms and want to know if I can just replace the ball joints or have to get new control arms.
Have a 07 Wrx with steel lower control arms and want to know if I can just replace the ball joints or have to get new control arms.
The ball joint is replaceable. There is one bolt with a lock pin underneath. Remove that and you'll be able to pull the ball joint.
Thanks for the help. I appreciate .
just FYI check the MAN FAC warranty. i got mine replaced plus the ball joint and Tie rod replace for free cause where it was sold like UM NY LOL so just to give you a warranty bumo bro SPECS 07 WRX under 75K sold in various states with HIGH SALT just trying to look out
My 07 Wrx has 130,000 miles on it and all the dealer did was spray a coating on the lower control arms.
Yeah I remember that recall it was back in fall/winter 2011.
It was a geographic recall Subaru Dealers inspect the degree of corrosion and either replace or rustproof the control arms on vehicles registered in the 20 snow winter states included in the recall.
My 05 WRX just got a rustproof coating they told me they didn't need to replace it.
Diamonds might be some girls best-friend, but for me it's the Subies!"
The coating the dealership sprayed on my control arms is already flaking off and it hasn't been a year.
