Looking for: axle nut steering arm nut lower control arm nut Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autom8r Posted September 4, 2013 Report Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Here is an excerpt from the manual. Instructions say to break the control arm from hub assembly at the ball joint. If you can do it at the control arm and leave the ball joint intact, seems even better! Have fun.

Would you be able to scan that part as well? I would really appreciate it. I was going to go with the lower control arm only because I found a How-To for a CV replacment on a Ford Escape. I figured it would be similar on the Edge. Once I get in there I'll take apart whatever is appropriate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brantlyj Posted September 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2013 (edited) Thanks, you rock. This looks like a super simple job. I'll try and get some photos. I should have the shaft in a few days but due to my schedule probably will not be able to work on it for a few weeks. Hopefully my shaft dosn't implode before then.
