Control Arm Bushing Installation 140-160 1974

Has anyone installed control arm bushings and ball joints on a 164E. The Haynes manual says:

"Renewal of suspension control arm bushes should be left to your Volvo dealer as special press tools are required and the setting of the bushes is critical."

Well I doubt my dealer has the "special" tools. Do I need them? I do have a 12 ton press.

Should I buy "new" control arms complete instead?

What else do I need to know?

Thanks
