What is your question?
Hi I just had a upper control arm and tie rod replaced. Now my question is did the lower ball joint needed to be removed in order to get to those parts?

Hey, my name is Dusty, and I'm one of the auto experts on RepairPal's Car Genius team. I'm here to help! When replacing the upper control arm and tie rod on your Accord, you typically won't have to remove the lower ball joint; that being said, unique circumstances may also be involved. It'd be worth asking for more information on why it needed replacement. The technician may have needed to manipulate the suspension components for better access, but removing it isn't required. If you experience any unusual symptoms, seek a second opinion from a professional. Given the safety implications, ensuring everything is reassembled correctly is crucial.
