Replacing Upper Control Arms

[RaptrJr]

For anyone that replaced their upper control arms themselves what did you have to do on the drivers side to get the bolt around the steering rack?

You need to disconnect the steering shaft. There is a M10 pinch bolt. Undo that and it slides out. Obviously, dont turn the steering wheel when disconnected. Dont worry about marking alignment or anything, the shaft is D shaped so can only go in one way.

Yep got it figured out shortly after posting this. Thanks though. Hopefully it'll help someone out.

Glad you got it handled. I installed the SuperPro UCA's but found the installation instructions provided by Rough Country to be a huge help with regards to the steering shaft.

Here is a link to their instructions found on their website, hopefully it's a help to someone else looking to tackle this project.
