are you refering to the camber arms or the spring bucket? Either way, jack up the car, remove the wheel, support the spring bucket with a jack by placing it in the center of the spring bucket, then remove the bolts from both side after marking the location of the eccentric bolt, and install the new arms, making sure they are the same length as the stock arms

Still not sure which arm you are refering to, Nissan refers to the spring bucket as the lower control arm, part #13

while the camber arm is #9, which one are you trying to replace?

He's saying adjustable, so it's probably the camber arm.
