Upper Control Arm

How difficult is it to replace the passenger side upper control arm on a 97 V8 Explorer? It appears to be 3-5 bolts and some prying. Am I missing something? Thanks.

Re: Upper Control Arm

Passenger side is the easy side! Remove the pinch bolt. Seperate the ball joint. Remove the 2 bolts facing you. No need to align.
The other side sucks and requires alignment since it's a one-piece part.
