Control Arm, Passenger Side

The first step to taking out the rear lower arm is to disconnect the rear wheel to proceed. The rear floor side member brace on the LH side requires removal by uninstalling its two bolts. Removing the 2 bolts allows separating the No. 3 parking brake cable assembly. Next in the repair sequence is the disconnection of the rear stabilizer link components. Loosen the rear shock absorber with coil spring by turning the bolt clockwise until the proper tension is reached. You need to loosen the nut which fastens the rear suspension arm bracket assembly. The technician should disconnect the rear No. 1 suspension arm assembly through bolt removal, followed by secure upper control arm support, and preceding all operations with basic component markings. Free the nut to allow removal of the rear No. 2 suspension toe adjust plate then the rear suspension toe adjust cam sub-assembly before disconnecting the rear shock absorber with coil spring through bolt and nut removal. Remove the bolt from the rear section of the rear No. 1 suspension arm assembly after removing its nut but keep the nut from turning. Repeat the following sequence: begin by removing 3 bolts from the front part before removing the rear suspension arm bracket assembly by taking out the nut, the rear suspension support stopper, and using Special Service Tool: 09632-36010 09950-40011 to remove the lower control arm bushing.

Separate the No. 2 steering intermediate shaft assembly.

Finally, remove the upper control arm assembly.
