Guide to remove front wishbones?

[alex_hazard]

Just wonder if anyone has removed their lower control arms before? I need to get them out to fit a set of PF camber bushes and would love a bit of guide as to the easiest way to go about it. Do I have to drop the subframe, or can this be avoided? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance. Alex

Surely someone has taken these out before? Perhaps I should post in the how to section

Someone will tell you soon I am sure. I seem to think you need to drop the subframe to get them off, but I haven't looked at it recently.

The radiator subframe needs to come off. Easy job, then just undo the bolts.
When you refit the bolts must be done up with the wishbone in the position it would be on the ground.
I jacked the wishbone up until it looked about eight
