step one: remove control arm from car(easy)
step two: remove old bushing(hard, you can burn it out...)
step three: insert new es bushing(very hard, a press helps)
step four: reinstall arm(easyish)
step five: grab a beer

sidequestion: is that something to do at the same time you are doing spring/shocks or not necessarily?
