These are the 2 balljoints that I presume I need a ball joint splitter for???
And the dreaded rear bush bolts which I need an 18mm flexible ratchet spanner for?
Looks like a bearing puller should remove the bush
Need to think something up for putting it back thouh
Not sure what this is that came with the arm - a temporary protector of some sort???
Any advice welcome. My main concern is how easy the balljoints are to pop off plus getting those bush bolts in. Workshop manual seems to imply it just all fits together without any pieces having to manipulated into place etc

you do not need anything to pull the rear rubber bearing off.it will come off by pulling it off. should be a straight forward job to do apart from the two bolts on the rear bearing. please let us know how you get on.
