I might be a bit late on this replay but i replaced mine and yes i had to use a press to get it out! and be carefull, make sure it comes out straight or u ruin the table/control arm and then have to buy a new one lol. the bushing was 22$ from a local autoparts store but ur better off just buying a new table/control arm it comes with the ball joint and both bushing for 125$ and no hastle of pressing out the old 1 and pressing back in the new one! was a ***** for me!
