front or rear? which one specifically?

Oh, and if you'd like the non-internet english interpretation of Clay's comment:

I (and several others here) feel that none of them are particularly difficult, but it really depends on your skill level, which (exact) bushing you're talking about, and (in some cases) the tools you have available to you..

gonna be a PITA with no tools... I burn the rubber out, then cut the shell to make it easier to remove. clean up with a wire wheel and then push the new bushing in. IIRC you need to press that one in or you can cobble up a draw bolt setup.

i am a prick but it was a serious question that i asked because you have not thought your question out. so if you went a little more in depth answers with your question everyone could help you out. here is a question for you since i am bored and would like to help a new member out since i seem to be coming off as a prick (let me know if i loose you) why are you replacing the bushing is it shot or are you trying to bump up the performance to an actual poly or something. if not and want to retain an actual stock bushing why not save yourself some time, effort, years of the car being down and just replace it with a used control arm someone has laying around. i say used because it doesn't seem like you really care about the car and you could just get by with replacing the broken components and not do the smart thing and replace in pairs. i come to that conclusion from your question because anyone else would of took the time and googled or ht'ed a simple answer for your question. in closing i am a dick not a prick i graduated when i found the internet.
