I dont know for certain if this particular car is like my 1991 civic but I need no special tools to replace the lower ball joints in my ride. If you look at where the bottom of the steering knuckle meets the lower ball joint there might be a clip there with two holes in it. if there is, give a good whack or two to the round area around the lower ball joint, then using circlip pliers, remove the clip and then tap the ball joint out of the steering knuckle. The driveshaft will have to be out of the steering knuckle. Ive replaced both lower ball joints this way in about 45 minutes.
