Anyone done this replacement on their own? Just heard my first few clicks yesterday when making some turns... I believe it is my bushings going out.

Anyone done this? How hard/not hard is it to do? I'm mechanically pretty good but have never replaced them. Or worth going to shop and spending the 300?

I am most likely going to buy all new bushings for everything and replace them

How are your ball joints? If they're questionable, you'd probably be better off getting new control arms that come with new bushings and ball joints, then it'd just be a simple swap to have all new stuff.

For what new control arms can be had for on eBay or Amazon, it's not worth paying a shop to press the bushings and ball joints out and in.
