I hoped someone would respond with the procedure, but since they haven't I'll throw out the info that I have. The control arm has four bushings per side (I think) they are refered to as the uppers and lowers. The lowers are the ones that usually wear and they are apparently easy to replace. They simply bolt in and out. The uppers are pressed in, and are therefore tricky to get out. Fortunatly they also wear much more slowly. You need a press to get them in which probably involves a trip to the machine shop. I'm planning on rebuilding the front end in the next few month with new ball joints, tie rod ends, and control arm bushings so I'm definetly eager to hear how the operation really goes.
