Suspension Change.

I'm going to be changing the suspension over the Christmas period, so i was wondering just what else has to be removed/loosened when changing, the manual says remove top wishbone and ARB drop link, and i think also the steering knuckle for the front, but from past experience on other cars this is rarely the case, so can someone who knows save me some time, and tell me just what in real tearms what has got to come off/be loosened in order to do both front and rear?

You do need to unbolt the top wisbone whre it mounts to the subframe cos the strut passes through it. You'll also need to remove the screenwash bottle on the n/s and (possibly) the smic if you've still got one. Doesn't need to be removed from the car though, once is's undone at the back, just swing it out of the way. The rear is straightforward, but you'll have more room to work if you pull the brake discs/calipers off. Make sure you undo the wires for the abs sensors and pull them out the way before doing anything else.
