Still in 2 minds whether to tackle this job myself but did a bit of "research" today...

Here's my arm and bush for the driver's side (bush is not on obviously)




Had a look in the manual and it appears to be quite straihtforward




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
