Remove control arm from vehicle.
If ball joint is pressed, use ball joint press (or hammer) to remove ball joint. If it is held in by rivits, destroy rivits and remove ball joint.
Bushings may be removed and installed with ball joint press; use your head (ie: you can use a socket if there is not a ball joint press adapter that fits control arm bushing, etc.).
Install new bushing STRAIGHT!
Install all other parts in reverse order of removal.
You should get an alignment after finished.

Use a ball joint press. You can get one from Harbor Freight. You'll most likely need the accessory kit as well. You can use the press in different configuration to press the old bushings out, and the new bushings in. Even the front upper bushings in the axle can be pressed out, although it may be a little tricky setting up the ball joint press to do the job.

The holes the bushings fit into wear as well, and the ball joint on it is probably shot too.
