Worn front sway bar drop links

Hi all, How difficult is this to replace these myself? Or, do I need specialized tools to do this?
What about alignment after replacement? Thanks!

You can DIY, they do not affect alignment


The hardest part is getting room to screw into the wheel carriers

Should I just replace these or are there other bushings/parts that I should replace at the same time...I just replaced the wheel arm bushings and shocks/struts...

all the bushe should be replaced after so many years, the '95 are now 2 decades old

for best combination of ride and performance

use Elephant sport bushes on at least the trailing legs of the front A-arms, on the leading legs too for best results

use RS rear A-arm and KTs arms(Elephant sport bushe can also be used here), use normal camber and toe arms and bushes, though the toe arms can be stiffened w/ either sport bushes or even mono-balls if the car is tracked.
