Default Bushing Tools

I was wondering if there are any special tools to use to remove and install bushings on our cars.



I was interested if there was a tool like the Trailing Arm bushing extractor tool but for the control arms instead.



I've looked into a 20 ton press but I was just wondering if there was any other tool for this job.

I'm not exactly sure but I believe there is a tool like that for control arm kit. Just to be sure and to give you more advice, I advice you consult a mechanic. hope that helps somehow. good luck.
