that's how I tried. you actually have to push down toward the ground in order to loosen the stud head. this would not allow me to use full force I was kinda afraid that I would strip something if I use the breaker bar on the head stud instead of the nut
ima grab a longer breaker bar from autozone

with the autozone's long **** breaker bar, i was able to get it off

i installed the bushings on the passenger side which took like 5 hours lol.gotta do the driver's side tomorrow.

There's a 1~2mm gap between the inner bushing and the Lower control arm. Will this be ok? or do i have to take off everything and use the press to get rid of the gap?

The squeeking noise that i had when braking is now almost gone. i still here it sometimes. i forgot to lub the frame that makes contact with the bushing

Also, since i have 05, there are two "bump" on the inside of the frame. i trimmed it but i couldn't get them to completely flat out.
