Just a quick question regarding removal of the lower wishbone removal.

My 75 failed it's MOT this morning on the ball joint having excessive play. I have a breaker that had the lower suspension arms replaced and only did about 5 miles before it was take off the road & I bought it.

Is it just a matter of 'breaking' the 2 ball joints and then pulling the wishbone out? or would it be better to remove the hub/spring etc. first to make it easier.

Any help would be appreciated.
