    I wish I could remember... It's been a while. It wasn't too complicated, I do remember that much. I might have used my manual, or it might have been help from here.
    Glad you checked, huh? ;)

    Spring Eye Bushings

    IIRC (it depends on the year) , the pin in the spring unscrews then you use some sockets and All Thread to press the old worn out bushing out of the spring eye .
