Upper control arm bushing...

taking out the UCA will not mess up your alignment, Ive already had to change out my UCA a few times, due to not listening to people on here, I am a victim of Ebay, I killed the UCA balljoints in 2 months, changed them and it did the same thing again, now I have TRW UCA's and its time to change the driver side again (im very rough on the ball joints, hopping the front end the range of angles I punish the balljoints with, since I can articulate the ball joint end to end from the bag setup)

The struts aren't bad to take out at all... unless someone stripped the studs on top when the replaced one side like on my car. It is worth taking them out over tryin to get the bolts out with the struts in.
