Have spent the past 4hrs wrestling with Upper control arm bolts...

Sears 7-ton puller.
It IS possible to get it in there. There's a convenient punch dent on the end of the bolt to center the puller on. Tighten down until the bolt nearly bends. Then smack the puller with a large hammer. It's definitely not easy. Be careful not to slip, or if the puller should "pop" off.
Needless to say use antisieze when reinstalling.

mine took 2 weeks, seriously. Took it off and finally went to a protoshop that abused it for 2 hours
I drilled, bend a 12ton press, used airhammer night after night and finally got a steelbar stuck in the drilled hole, yahuu. two f*king weeks.... this car is so stuck everywhere after 7 years (3 of them in salty winterroads)

those are my early spring wheels, heavy as hell and with worn out tires, MMiglia evo 5
looks badass as they also come out with 15mm spacers. Some dont like it but I do once a year.
