You will need a ball joint press and a spring compressor. This job is fairly simple if you have these two tools and some time. Do it all in one shot. The upper control arms have balljoints and bushings already installed. Get new bushings for the swaybar, inners and outers. The lower control arms will need the bushings pressed in. I used a large C-clamp and various 1/2drive sockets to press the old bushings out and the new in. Do the lower balljoints and replace the idler arm, strut rod mount and the steering stabilizer. RT
