upper control arms on D3
Hi guys
im looking for information and or video tutorials on replacement of the front upper control arms on my D3. . Ive done both lower arms but be damned if i can find any tips or tricks for the uppers. It look to be a tight space so any advice prior to taking things apart will be gladly received

It's tight but straightforward IIRC. Don't think the bolts generally cause trouble like the lowers. Current: Discovery 3 06MY (55 reg) HSE Auto Zambezi Silver Allisport Fast Road Intercooler, V8 Brakes, Silicone IC Hoses, EGRs Blanked, Remapped, De-Cat pipe, FBHIC

I was going to do my upper arms when I did the lowers in Feb for the MOT, but couldn't for the life of me see how to get to the front bolt.
Took the wheel arch trim out but the suspension strut was still in the way Come to think of it, I should probably have just dropped the suspension strut out while the lower was off! >.< edit: nope sure I looked and the housing/support blocks it too.
