How do I replace the front lower control arm bushings? any special tool required?

 

-basic hand tools with metric sockets and metric wrenches
-tool to pop lower ball joint out of lower control arm (a hammer hit against side of LCA usually works as well)
-something to support knuckle/brakes while LCA is out
-a hydraulic press with the right size adapters to push the old bushing out and the new one in

 

Well thanks, I'll need a shop cuz i dont have a press.

 

if you can, remove the control arm and take it to a machine shop and just have that work done and do the rest yourself. That'll save you some money as long as you have a way to get around while the car it down.

 

yes that is what im thinking, i did the same when i replaced the lower ball joints.
