call around to the local parts stores some of them will rent, but which ones I don't know, also take the time to LOOK IN THE PHONE BOOK UNDER AUTO PARTS-NEW, the ones that rent will advertise it. Damm boy do a little bit of common sense homework next time.

To remove old bushings, I use a drill with an 1/8" bit and install between the inner sleeve and the rubber bushing, as the drill runs, the bit rotates around the sleeve losening the grip the rubber has on it, and it starts to push the inner sleave out at the same time. Use channel locks to finish removing the inner sleeve, then pull out the bushing, use a hammer and chisel to partialy colapse the outer sleeve then it will fall out of the a-arm. Use a ball joint press to install new bushing.
