Upper control arm replacement

I replaced mine on a Duster. Just took the wheel off & unbolted them. Made a note of the direction of the alignment cams. Had to whack the spindle to get the ball joint loose.
I didn't not make note of the direction of the alignment,after I put the new control arms on I take it to get alignment for free but have 90 days to put new control arms in if not I have to pay for alignment
