R&R rear upper control arm

[zwindsor]

Has anyone removed the right rear upper control arm? The bolt is blocked by what appears to be a black control box attached by a wire connector and hose. It's mounted on a bracket by 3 screws (none of which you can get to) and the bracket is held on by a small bolt, also not reachable with tools due to fuel tubes being in the way.

Any tips would be appreciated.

Yeah did that, if i remember had to cut the bracket just a bit to move it out of the way, got some pics?

The correct, easiest, way to do this is to drop the rear subframe. If you have a shop do the work they will do it that way...

If you do it yourself, there is a way to cheat: http://krystmsgarage.com/?p=287

Thanks! This is very helpful. I was going to get back to this project sooner or later and really take the time to look at possible paths to take.
