Installing new control arm bushings
I need to do this and lower ball joints and i want to know how hard it is and what special tools. I got a quote from my mechanic and he told me around $300-$400 and i think that is quite rediculous. Tell me what you guys think. Can the guy from MB Autowerks give me a quote. I would be willing to drag myself out there if i can get a good price. I also want to put the sportline control arm bushings in. Tell me how hard this is to do.

Once the control arms are off, the job isn't hard. BUT You must deal with compressing the springs first. Also the bushings need to be pressed in. Then the car will need to be realigned.
