Replacing a broken a arm in a trailer or in the parking lot is never fun, but here is a tip that you can do in the shop now to help yourself save some time later.

Silicon the lower front mounting nuts so they stay in place when re-installing the bolts, saves you from having to remove the front bumper and skid plate to phish the nut that fell. Not a big deal but when it's freezing cold in the parking lot at night, it all helps!

First ride, A-arm made it 38 miles. Glad I silicon'd the lower front nuts, had a new a-arm on in 20 minutes!
