How to replace the lower control arm on Chevrolet Malibu?

Start by elevating and stabilizing your vehicle. Then remove the wheel according to the process. Owners of vehicles with lx9 engines must detach the side transmission mount for the left Control Arm or the Engine Mount for the right Control Arm. Remove the lower Control Arm front bushing to frame bolt followed by removal of lower Control Arm rear bushing to both frame bolts and nuts. Before bolt removal from the Control Arm note its alignment to the Steering Knuckle pinch bolt and discard the pinch bolt. Separate the ball stud from the Steering Knuckle before removing the Control Arm from the vehicle along with the lower Control Arm rear bushing. Install the lower Control Arm rear bushing first before placing the Control Arm between the frame assembly and Steering Knuckle. Start by installing a new ball stud to the Steering Knuckle pinch bolt and performing just a hand tighten. Next install the lower Control Arm front bushing to the frame bolt also performing a hand tighten. The installation requires using fasteners which match the part number for each application according to their specific locations. Are you also told to avoid applying paints or using lubricants or adding corrosion inhibitors on fasteners and joint areas because these substances interfere with torque strength and clamping abilities. Weld the lower Control Arm rear bushing into position by fastening frame bolts and nuts. Secure the ball stud to Steering Knuckle pinch nut at 50 nm (37 lb ft) then rotate the nut 3/4 of a turn before achieving 50 nm (37 lb ft) torques completed with a 60-degree nut rotation. Tighten the first suspension bolt under proper jackstand conditions before setting the front bushing to frame fastener at 50 nm (37 lb ft) and an additional 90 degrees and the rear bushing to frame bolts at 50 nm (37 lb ft) and another 90 degrees. To reinstall the right lower Control Arm you should add the Engine Mount. Installation of the side transmission mount needs to be performed if the left lower Control Arm was removed during service. To finish the installation process simply install the tire and wheel and carefully lower the vehicle.
