Today, i took off the tires and try to find the way to replace my suspension....and i have ever check some Tech article mention that i need to take off the upper control arm....but i just can't do this.....because it is too tight and almost locked (it may damage by snow or something else)....does anyone ever face this problem before?? how can i take upper control arm off?? what kind of tools i need to use for loose them?? My friend told me to use PV hammer to nock upper control arm....but it seems not work very well....do you guys have any idea about this issue??

by the way...... I have another quesiotn about this......Do i realy need to loose upper control arm??? cus i think that if i only loose suspension's screw on the top(two 13mm crew) and one screw connected to lower control arm and suspension......

i think if i took off both of them....i should able to took off my suspension....is that right???

Also might be helpful if you are replacing the entire suspension, (new parts cause old ok parts to fail in a chain of events.
