I ordered the compression rod bushings from a vendor here on the forum and got them within a day of ordering them!
Lower control arm should be here by tomorrow.
Got new wheels and tires stacked up in the garage waiting to go on when everything is finished up. All that and a four wheel alignment and I should be good to go.
I decided to hold off on the coolant until school is out and I'm back home for the summer.
Ill post pics and let you guys know how it goes. Thanks for all the tips so far!

Had to have the machine shop press in the comp rod bushings.
The control arm itself was SUPER easy. It dropped right out and the new one slid in with ease.
Old control arm bushing where it mounts to frame:
Stock front pads at 69k:
Where the shock mounts (see how its all pushed to the bottom):
