I'm getting some nasty squeeking from the front, though there's no play in the steering.

I was told it was the control arms, and that they're about $450/side from the factory.

Has anybody installed them on their own? If so, how hard is it? I have the full shop manual, a little mechanical experience, and I live with a guy who built Honda drag cars for 7 years drives a 9 second daily driver civic, so he's offered to help.

We don't have a lift, but we have jacks, jackstands etc . . . (and a few B18 blocks and LS Integra trannies liying around . . . )

 

Its pretty easy. If I can do it, anyone can. Just make sure to put the alignment plates back on. Its a pretty straight foreward removal and install. Make sure you also disconnect the caliper from the hub assembly so that you dont rip the brakelines, and remove the abs sensors.
