I had replaced my rear upper control arms (tuning forks) several thousand miles ago, I did replace new Bump stops, bearing plates and boots. My lower control arms were good. To do the fronts I only removed the calipers, rotors and top strut mount. Rears I disconnected the control arms at the camber and toe adjustment points. As an FYI the paint on the strut body was so thick on the rear they would not slide into the hub carrier. On reassembly I loosely assembled the control arms then carefully jacked the hub carrier up onto the strut.
Will be interesting to hear your thoughts! Gives us older car owners the ability to have a similar effect to the expensive PASM on the later cars. I really like mine. Now if StevedOX would weigh in with the track perspective......
