Lower control arm bushings*%#@#

You mean a drag car? If I wasn't driving on the street I would like use poly bushings. If it is a road car I would use moog problem solver offset rubber upper bushings and plain old common moog lower bushings.

There are many other ways to do it other than the posted tool. I have chiseled them out. Others have welded a washer to the end of the old shell and pressed them out. Some of the poly lower bushings need the original shell in place in the arm to work properly. I personally can't see spending the money on the tool when I know it can be done without it and I would only use it maybe once every 5 years.
