    Default Upper control arm bushes

    So the outer bushes have gone on the rear.
    Question is,
    Do I replace the bushes or the arms.
    If I replace the bushes, then I know I will need a removal tool.
    What do you think is the easiest way to do this and can anyone recommend any good bushes or control arms and give any links to them if at all possible.




    Thank in advance.....

    Well I replaced the upper control arms yesterday and what big difference it has made to the smoothness of the ride and road holding. Also quieter going over the bumps...
