does anyone know hoe to remove those upper control arm bushings as mine simply won't move at all. My sub frame is finally out of the van and replacing all suspension and steering parts, but i can't do it without replacing the upper control arm bushings. any feed back will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

A press is the easiest method. Any shop should have one. Shouldn't cost any more than $20.00 to get them removed and replaced. With a press it's an easy job.
