Front Control Arm/ Bushing Replacement

I am beginning to get creaking in my front suspension. Everything is stock. I heard replacing the bushings will get rid of the noise. I found Energy Suspension bushings for 50 bucks. If someone can help, I need to know what exactly to do to change them? The dealer wants to charge an arm and leg. Thanks.

You need a 10 ton hydraulic press and its a PITA so it will be expensive for a shop to do it.

Well there goes that idea. How about greasing them up? Easy task? What type of grease should I use?
