Suspension rebuild tools? Magnum HP?

Hi all,

Sorry if this is posted somewhere and I missed it. I did a search and came up with some bits and bobs on it, but still left me with a question or two.

Going to totally redo the front suspension on a '71 Dart when I swap over the discs from a '73 dart parts car. Going to swap over all the '73 stuff onto the '71. So, bought all the suspension pieces to rebuild the '73 front suspension while doing the swap.

Upper and lower control arm bushings, upper and lower ball joints, front tie bar bushings, tie rod ends inner and outer with new sleeves.

Looking through it seems I need to purchase a 1.915" socket to fit the upper ball joints.

Also looks like I need the upper control arm bushing remover/installer and the lower control arm pivot remover. Once the pivot is out I guess I need to cut/chisel/compress the lower control arm bushing out and somehow press the new one in.

Question is are these the tools needed? I don't have access to a press just an old small vise and the nearest machine shop is quite a way off and difficult for me to get to. Are there other home made type tools that can be used to do the job?

I saw a post or two saying to get the tools from Magnum HP. Looks like I'd be into $90 in tools plus ship right off the bat (so much for saving money doing it diy eh?). Has anyone dealt with this company? Quality? Service?

Thanks for any help.

Cheers
