not hard if you hav the right TOOLs. You will need a manual such as Chilton or even a Hynes would probley hav the torque spefication and anything else you'd need.

Well tools won't be a problem, I have been a mechanic for 15 years, Just always worked on diesel and heavy equiptment, cars are kinda foreign to me.

I assume your talking about he lower A-arm?

Did one on a Stratus, but not a grand am, didn't look much different.
Best advice I can give you is have a ball joint fork to seperate the a-arm from the knuckle, and have a long pry bar to pry the a-arm down to get the lower ball joint out of the a-arm. Having a buddy there to give you a hand is worth the beer it cost.
