The lower control arm bushing would be located at the inner pivot point where the lower control arm is mounted to the frame/crossmember. Depending on your vehicle it could have one or two bushings. The outer pivot point would be your lower ball joint.

How do you remove the upper control arm bushings in your 1970 Chevelle?
Remove the ball joint and the two bolts that hold the rocker shaft to the frame. Keep track of the shims! You will need to put them back. The easiest way to get them out is with a press, but you CAN use a vice and beat the hell out of them, although I wouldn't recommend it. Chances are, the shaft will NOT come out with both bushings in the control arm, keep that in mind when you press the new ones in... You will need to re-install the shaft BEFORE you press the second bushing back in.
