Not difficult. You need special tools. I bought the tools and broke one(the tool) trying to get one of the bushings out. If I ever need to do again I'll remove the control arms and take them to a machine shop and let them remove/install.

Uppers are easy. I bought the tool, basically a threaded bolt and some washers, etc... It was a synch. R&R both sides in 15 mins. The lowers I sent to the machine shop. Will do the same soon. If I had a cheap press I'd do it all myself. PS, it was my first time doing it.
