Need some advice on rebuilding suspension-and other things...

["John Schiller" <trinurse@domain.elided>]

You've probably read my previous posts that I was looking for a project to 
keep me busy while burning up 20 days of military leave. Well, with the help 
of Digesti bretheren and AlfaBill, I decided to replace all suspension 
bushings and do a brake job - rotors, pads, bearings, fluid, etc.
As I am a novice of these things, any advice would be appreciated so I don't 
have to have the car towed to my mechanic and deal with the scorn of my wife 
(again).
1. How hard is it to change out the DeDion triangle bushing. I know it has 
to be pressed in but can it be done some other way.
2. How difficult is it to change the caster bushing. Should I even bother? 
Will I somehow kill myself or destroy my knuckles and find myself out of 
work, divorced, and living out of a saggy Verde?
3. Any special advice on changing the rotors, bearings, and seals for the 
front brakes? What fluid do you all recommend? Castrol?
Thanks again

PS. - this project will take place over my 40th Bday and am hoping that the 
stress of this project won't trip some sort of mid-life crisis.
