Are you talking about the inner bushings on the upper/lower arms, or the ball joints on the ends of the arms? The ball joints are pretty simple to change, you just have to get the loaner tool from autozone. I would think the inner bushings are even simpler.

If you can remove the lower control arm yourself, take it with your new bushing to a shop that has a press. They will do it for cheap (since you already have the arm off the car).
