To remove the trailing arm, follow similar steps.

To detach the control arm, you need to remove the bolts that attach the rear of the control arm to the engine cradle and the pivot bolt and nut that attaches the front of the control arm to the engine cradle.

Start by loosening the wheel lug nuts on the side to be dismantled and raising the front of the vehicle. Support it securely on jackstands and remove the wheel.

To remove the toe link, start by loosening the rear wheel lug nuts and raising the rear of the vehicle on jackstands. Remove the rear wheel and mark the positions of the inner bolt heads or cam adjusters to the subframe. Then, remove the inner and outer pivot bolts and the toe link. For installation, reverse the removal steps and make sure to align the bolt heads or adjuster cams with the marks made. Before tightening the mounting bolts, raise the outer end of the lower control arm with a floor jack to simulate normal ride height. Tighten the bolts to the specified torque and consider having the wheel alignment checked and adjusted if necessary.
