I replaced my UCA Bushings.
First you take your control arm and remove the bolt:

then you put it up and out of the way:

then you take your All joint press and pop it out: (mind you on the drivers side I had to use a 1 5/16" socket on the end to push it all the way thru)

then once removed set your new one in:

and then press it all the way in:

and once it is seated bolt it all the way back up: (i drilled out the "bumps" and then used 1/2" hardware on mine)

Install time was just over an hour on the drivers side about 20 minutes on the passenger side
also found some new rock rash!![Thumbs Up](https://www.cherokeeforum.com/images/smilies/1.gif)
