Porsche 911 997 Rear Control Arm Replacement DIY (2005-2012 Porsche Carrera, S, 4S, Targa)

►If your Porsche 911 997 begins feeling unstable in the rear, there's a good chance that your rear control arm bushings are worn out and need replacement. To make replacing the rear 997 suspension bushings a more straightforward task, Porsche designed the control arms to be complete units that you easily swap in without having to use a press tool on any bushings.

In this DIY, Michael Hidalgo, FCP Euro's master DIY mechanic, walks us through the step-by-step of how to replace all three of the rear control arms on the Porsche 997 911.
