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 control arm bushings are pressed into the control arm. You must use a press (ball joint press with proper adapters, etc.) to remove and install bushings. You may need to heat old bushings with torch to remove bushings from control arm. If you are comfortable with this then here is what you need to do: Remove wheel. Use safety glasses while removing ball joint stud from steering knuckle. Unbolt control arm from vehicle. Change bushings. Install control arm in reverse order.
