cant afford to have the shops press in all the front upper and lower control arm bushings and the rears...harbor freight sells this tool which was on sale today for $50 its reg $80. the front uppers went in very easy, all i had to do was tap the wrench with a hammer to snug em up. this tool will save me alot of cash.:rock:

Re: gonna replace uca bushings today
When I replaced mine I just used a propane torch with a pencil tip flame to heat up the material around the bushings. Once they got hot enough, I could just press them out. Then I waited for them to cool back down and used some WD40 to clean up the gunk that was left over. Used some bushing grease to lube the new ones up and pressed them back in with a C-clamp. Finished tightening them down by using bolts and washers to make sure they were fully seated.
