Been putting this off for ages because I hardly use the car any more.
Not too bad a job, as i got it done in 2 and a half hours, but then again, I didn't stop for tea breaks.
1) unstake the hub nut and remove it (with the wheel back on the car and on the ground. I use a BFO 3/4" drive breaker bar and a large impact socket.
2) undo the drop link - use a jack to raise the suspension to align the anti-roll-bar to remove it.
3) undo hub from bottom arm - I like to back the arm up off the (undone but still fitted) balljoint nut so that the suspension is trying to separate the two components, then give the arm a nice big whack with a hammer, and plop, they're apart.
