Steif,

I did not remove the lower control arm, but lowered it with a floor jack after supporting the car on stands. I removed/loosened one or two of the five links to the hub so I could get it in a better position. As Brian stated, I think I also loosen the brake shield to get a better position.

I used this puller: http://buy.snapon.com/catalog/pro_det.asp?P65=yes&qt=1&tool=all&INV_ONHAND=&FREIGHT=&qty=1&Item_id=229&PartNo=CJ2002&Price=+n%2Fa+&ListPrice=+n%2Fa+&FORMNAME=1&Desc=Puller+Set%2C+Bar+Gear%2C+Type&SUB_Cat_ID=1466555&SUB_Cat_NAME=Interchangeable+Puller+Sets&Cat_ID=1465957&Cat_NAME=Pullers&group_id=1233&group_NAME=Gear+Puller+Set&store=IntBrowse&dir=catalog

I have not seen the Baum tool others are referencing. It might even be even easier. It took me a few times to get it lined up just right. To install the new bushing, I used a large socket that is the same outer diameter as the bushing. It will press in fairly easily. I used a big C clamp. I wouldn`t use the center of the new bushing to press it in as you risk damaging the boots that seal the bushing.

Maybe someone on this forum (J.?) would let you borrow their tool???
