It's pretty straight forward but there is one tool i recommend getting or renting is a ball joint separator. One like this one

I picked one up at harbor freight for like 12 bucks worked like a charm first time using it

[After re-reading post]
If you're talking about the rear control arms, you need A SPECIAL SOCKET (http://www.clubrsx.com/cr/SPC-69330.html) to get the outer bolts off.

Lol yeah i re read it after i posted that. Well that tool is used to remove the from LCA's not the rear's and like Twisted-x already stated to do the rears just need i believe it is a 8 pointed or 6 pointed star bit to remove the 3 bolts on each side

I believe its a 10-point socket. SPC makes one that works for the RSX. i am failrly certain its the same one for the ep3.

Manufacturer: SPC
Part Number: 69330

Looks like amazon sells it.. you can sign up for the prime membership free for a month and get free 2-day shipping. just cancel the membership if you don't want to pay/keep it..

If you're talking about the front control arms, what are you planning on doing with the old ones?
