So I finished replacing the upper and lower control arms and bushes. I can say this job has not got any more fun. New bushes went in using a bench vice and some pieces of wood with no problems.
Had the usual fun getting the ball joints undone. That ball joint separator has well and truly paid for itself. Did a quick and dirty alignment before tightening the bushes up. With all the adjustments zeroed (set to center) it came out with 1.25 deg neg camber, and the toe is a little off to the right. I'll sort it all tomorrow or whenever I get the ride height of the track car back down to something more useful.
