Thanks for the video. The pry bar saved my whole entire job I needed a second person glad I had the opportunity to do it in my garage not a fun job to do in the street.
For such a big car, BMW should of gave these cars wider tires back in the day, ironically they had the widest tires on an suv at the time for the bigger engines
I don’t see how this made any difference- I side had no wear- the other side , the ball joint would make no difference how loose as it’s it goes from the same point-

i've seen videos where they had to remove the shock to make it easier? Did you have to remove it?
why did you replace rearward arm? the camber arm (rear upper forward arm) is the other arm, right?
No the other arm is toe arm
Did it adjust to spec at the alignment shop?
Yes it did

Clapped out ball joint allows more movement then necessary
