Re: front suspention question

uppers you need to grind and punch out the rivets and the lowers are pressed in

This is a pic of the lower ball joint remover. You could borrow one from the parts store or the're pretty cheap at a car surplus store (Harbour Freight (U.S.)).

Re: front suspention question

Go to AutoZone...credit card deposit...take the B joints out and take the unit back...They tear up the deposit. Same thing when you put them back in. So it's free to use, just need to give them a deposit.
