Remove the ball joint nut. Use a hammer and hit the spindle where the ball joint goes threw it. It will release eventually. Remove the sway bar link and the bolts(2) holding the control arm to the frame. Pry bars and a hammer help. Knock the new one in place and reinstall.

SOURCE: Lower Control Arm Bushing replacement
Hi,
I just did this job on my 98 regal, and I own the service manuals also. The lower control arm bushing that usually goes, is the front one. The rear one doesn't usually go, it is horizontally mounted. The front one for some reason is vertical. The control arm must be removed, and put in a vise. The front bushings outer metal sleeve, must be driven out with a chisel. It comes out easily. The new bushing can be tapped in with a hammer. Hope this helps!

to remove the axles, remove brake caliper and disc, remove hub assembly, the center hub/axle nut and...(there are i think 3-4 bolts on the back side of the spindle to remove the hub), you may have to force the hub off the spindle with a hammer or air hammer... once the hub is out the axle should slide out of the front differential allowing access to the ball joint nuts for removal...
