Is it the kind of thing that you do left & right, top & bottom at once?

How do I know if this needs changing? It doesn't make any funny sounds & I've had no issues with the tyre wear. The other 3 look fine. (Actually it does make a funny metal vibrating sound at 2100RPM, but I'm fairly sure this isn't the cause)

Is this tool the best 'at home' method?

In most cases yes... in my case we bent one!
So I went a 12t ram and press in situ.

I'm looking at buying a shop press anyway. Is that what you mean?

Same here. Buying a press this week to replace all my bushings front and rear. Just a hair under 300k on my car, so it's time methinks. Also, can feel and hear a bit of knocking from the rear when it rocks back and forth over bumps.
