The only thing I would add to MikkiJaynes post is the lower rear bolt for that arm, its a PITA no matter how you do it, http://www.audipages.com/Tech_Articl...rmreplace.html gives a very good run down on the job but I didnt cut the bolt, I dropped the rear of the subframe down and reversed the bolt at re-assembly, and that is just as fiddly to get back in

I though David was only changing straight arms, no cutting and refitting from inside the subframe or dropping subframe is required for bolts if only changing straight arms. For the curved arms I always cut bolts and refit from the other side. I don't want to drop subframe as it can move sideways and upset camber balance between sides and wheel aligners are very hard to persuade to adjust camber around here. They say camber is not adjustable for the car, I point out that total of both sides is not adjustable but subframe can be shifted sideways so that camber is the same on both sides, they agree that it can be done but say they don't do it.
and it's not just one place I have asked.
