Nope, however towards the end of removal just make sure the tire is off and the wheel carrier is jacked up to a horizontal position. or you will never get the arm off!!
PS don't forget to deactivate the brake system!!

Yep sounds like a walk in the park, but wait till you get into the job--it ain't!!
