Separate the ball joint from the knuckle. Remove the bolts that hold the control arm in place. Remove the stabilizer bar links if required (they will probably break if you live in a rust zone). Unclip any ABS wiring and remove the entire arm from the car. Note the depth and orientation of the bushing (some have flanges, others do not). Using a chisel and hammer (an air chisel is much faster), cave the bushing sleeve in enough to release tension, then pound the bushing out of the arm. Press the new bushing in with whatever you can find. A vice and large pipe/socket should work, as will a length of all-thread rod and said socket, but you may need a ball joint press or a hydraulic unit depending on the style of bushing. Do not use a hammer to install the new bushing. Once the bushing is in, reinstalling the arm is the reverse of removal.
