We'll start by jacking up the front wheel, no need to take off the wheel, just jack it up so that the wheel is in the air.
Then we'll open the 24mm bolt at the end of the lower control arm bushing. There's also a 24mm bolt on both sides of the bushing that needs to be opened.
The outer bolt was so rusted on mine that I couldn't get it opened at first but then the welding cracked on the nut so I had to weld the nut back on the upper side. After I had welded the nut back then the bolt opened easily because of the heat caused from the welding. When we have managed to open all three bolts then it's just to pull the bushing out.
Some grease on and just push the new lower control arm bushing on it's place and all the three bolts back and it's done.
