Mercedes w202 front control arm replacement at home

I'm replacing in this video the front right lower control arm on my 1998 Mercedes C230k.
Tools I used:
Jack, jackstands
Socket 21mm for the control arm's ball joint.
Socket 18mm for the steering arm's ball joint.
Socket 13mm for the sway bar.
Socket 22mm for the control arm's holding bolts.
Torx bit 55 for the control arm's holding bolt other side.
Socket 17mm for the shock absorber.
I also used ball joint remover and spring compressor.

You should leave sway bar connected until you place jack underneath. Sway bar does better job at holding control arm up than shock absorber.
