Bushings

Will be installing Bilsteins this Saturday and figured that since I will need an alignment afterwards I may as well replace the almost dead bushings in the front end...from the IPD catalog, there seems to be three main bushings: Control Arm Stay Inner, Control Arm Stay Outer and Control Arm. From the picture they included in the catalog (and since I haven't checked the bushings up front) I can't tell which of them need a press to install.

Any information would be invaluable (heck all information on this site in invaluable!)

Also for front strut installation, what is the hardest part of the job? I am assuming it's getting the struts compressed.

Thanks,

Dave
