replaced the rear upper arm, bit of a job mind
had mine done by my indy a couple of weeks ago, took them over 4 hours to do both sides as the bolts were seized but the difference in ride quality is huge
did you do both sides or just the one ?2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten

Today I cleaned my 2005 SE and put the battery on trickle charge with my smart charger. Got a new company car a couple of weeks ago, so won't be using the Disco as much for day to day jobs.
Looks nice and shiny

Made a start on building a draw for the boot to go under the dogs.
Changed the engine oil, both diff oils, transfer case oil and the brake fluid. Rolling around under cars is a young mans game.

Finished fitting the DRLs. Look really good. Need to sort out why the front parking sensor is permanently on after fitting DRLs. Hope it’s not electrical interference from the DRL controllers.D3 - 2008.5MY HSE, Stornaway Grey, RSE etc - all the toys

Changed the front upper control arms together with the tie rod links. Lower wishbones were replaced last year. Lemförder arms were 69€ the piece – Made in Taiwan and bought from German retailer. Ordered on Sunday – shipped on Monday – received on Tuesday. Not associated with retailer www.motointegrator.de but highly recommended.

Tested out my FBH controller. Could hear the FBH ticking but didn't start I suspect it needs a service so the new gaskets have been order to get done next week.
Took it for a transmission flush @ 71K & 4years old it was probably due 8.53ltrs of ZF Lifeguard administered using Launch UK CAT501s machine to keep things running sweet.
