Upper Control Arm Install

[91five-o]

Hi I just got bought a set of FMS upper control arms and wantto install them. Could anyone tell me what I have to do to install them. I have installed lowers already now Im on to the uppers. Is the uppers easier then the lowers? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

The uppers are way easier than the lowers. I installed them myself last week on my 95. I read this article before I started.

Thanks. So i dont have to unhook any suspension components like with the lowers. Its just the two bolts on the uppers and thats it?

One other thing do I need to buy a bushing or somthing for the other end of the control arm? I bought them off ebay but there isnt one with it.

Yes thats right, you dont have to unbolt any of the suspension stuff, other than those 2bolts for each upper control arm. That bushing can stay, or can be changed. I bought my control arms from X2C Motorsports, and it didnt have that bushing for the upper arm. My stock bushing wasnt that bad so I just left it there, on the car. Really easy to access and easier to unbolt than the lower control arm, so I might just buy a new bushing one day and change it, if I feel like it.
