Just did all this this morning. My 2 cents. getting the old bushings out and putting the new bushings and ball joints in was the easiest part of the whole process. just getting everything unbolted and bolted back in took the most time. Total work time was about 7 hours, that was replacing LCA bushings, ball joints and tie rods, and my buddies starter. And we managed to squeeze a few drinks in to.

the only hiccup I ran into was with the tie rod and that doesn't really pertain to this topic, if it hadn't been for the tie rods we probably would have been done in half the time.

All in all it's a good DIY project, as long as the bolts don't get stuck wich luckly I didn't run into.
