    Another option here is complete control arms. No pressing involved. However the bushings would be OE rubber instead of squeak prone poly.

    Rockauto has em.

    if you have room and $120 i suggest buying a 12,000lb shop press, then you can press stuff whenever you need. check ebay or www.northerntool.com
