[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1086256, member: 178786"] Is there a reason why you wish to replace the feed support arms one by one rather that remove the entire feed assembly? I can understand that you have the scalar in its clamping ring at the correct focal distance from the dish but if you measured the appropriate lengths of the existing assembly arms from the dish face you should be able to replicate that when reassembling. If you were to remove the entire feed assembly it would only need the three nuts at the rear side of the dish removing in order to lift off the feed setup? By adjusting the elevation to place the dish in something close to a "bird bath" position it might give relatively easy access to remove the three nuts and allow lifting away the feed setup from the dish. You could measure the currrent elevation of the dish using a digital inclinometer on one of the vertical struts of the square frame section that the dish is secured to and use that angle as a reference to return to after a "bird bath" tilting of the dish.
