they shouldnt be to bad i have taken out the stub axel but never the arm yet, but it should be just a straight through bolt on either end of the arm then the top i think its a ball joint that connects it to the stub axel. undo that and hit it so it comes out. the only prob is im not sure if they are a press in press out bush if they are you may be able to cut it out but it is a shit of a job or have to take it to a suspention joint to do it for ya, if ya have the arm already out it shouldnt cost to much. hope it helps a bit.

The Whitleine front camber kit (KCA348) only replaces the outer bushes on the front upper control arm, not the inner. The yellow bushes in the following picture;

Be carefull that you are not looking at the rear camber kit (KCA347), one of the bushes is the same size as the front inner upper bush, the other isn't.

cheers
