How to remove and inspect the control arm on Nissan Altima?

To access the control arm it is necessary to first but loose the wheel lug nuts and then lift the front of the car and put it on jackstands then take off the wheel. Next, remove the connecting balljoint pinch bolt and then pull out the balljoint stud from the steering knuckle such that the rubber boot is not distressed. Next, the control arm bushing bolt nuts and bolts have to be loosened before the control arm itself can be pulled out. For assessment purpose, the front and rear bushings have to be inspected; in case there is a crack or tear then the control arm has to be changed because one cannot change the bushings separately. Also, check the control arm to ensure it is straight; if not, replace it because trying to straighten it is not encouraged. For installation, the parts are always put back in reverse of how they were removed, and all fastening bolts and nuts tightened to their respective standard torque. Last, fix the wheel on the car and the lugs nuts to the right torque, then you should lower the car and after you are through with the job you may need to check the front wheel alignment.

Nissan Altima Control Arm

The Control Arm acts as the critical connection between the wheel hub and the vehicle frame. This part guides your wheels through their up and down arcs, keeping contact with the tires stable and the ride smooth. The Control Arm is a metallic part, often in an A-shape, that pivots within the suspension so the wheels may react to bumps while the chassis remains steady. The suspension structure of Nissan consists of a solid metal arm, along with bushings and a ball joint. The arm gives strength to the component, the bushings cushion motion and absorb vibration, and the ball joint gives the rotational connection to the steering knuckle. In an Altima suspension layout, the Control Arm positions the wheel so steering angles and vertical travel remain properly aligned. Joining forces with the springs, shock absorbers, and wheels, the Control Arm directs forces from the latter into the first two. This results in the Nissan sedan being able to maintain road grip and retain stability even when on uneven surfaces. Numerous Nissan models feature this same simple interpretation so that the Altima profits from a rugged Control Arm that allows for predictable handling, everyday comfort, and tranquility in the Altima cabin.
