Thank you for the video bro, just finished my control arms for my 06 Sentra. Quick tip, if the sway bar link bolt doesn’t reach out enough under the control arm when reassembling, use the jack to push up the control arm, then you can tighten it properly.
I didn't have too much trouble fitting the passenger side, maybe I just had the sequence right, but driver side was hell, I tried starting with ball joint then with sway bar link then with the three bolt mount, i tried using a jack to try and put some extra pressure nothing worked to make it align, i started getting cramps and it was getting late, so the next morning, I basically I lunscrewd the two strut mount screws, the tie rod, ball joint was still loose since I didn't finish installation, after everything was very loose I did my best to focus on the three inside mount bolts aligned as best as I could and it still was lightly off but my goal was to make sure that the little guide pin goes into the hole so slowly with an impact gun I thightnened the three screws a little at the time and once i was sure the guide pin was in I finished it with the impact gun (as gently as I could), it was the only way, then tightened everything else after jacking up that side to the proper hight. pro tip before you start, measure the distance from the fender to the center cap before raising and taking off tire. after positioning control arm/"finger tightening" bolts the best you can, put a jack under the control arm to raise to the proper riding hight before torqing everything, it will last longer.
