It is kind of a pain but you will need a 19MM socket 17MM wrench and maybe a 21MM and 18 or 19MM wrench.
The worse part is getting the balljoint back in the control arm when the arm is seated in the subframe.

You installed it to the subframe first correct?
Then you need to pull the arm down and install the balljoint. Yes it is alot harder than it sounds.
