Radius arm Bushing

How hard is it to replace a radius arm bushing on a 1995 Ford F150 ?

Are the RA brackets riveted to the frame? Pretty difficult. If they're bolted then you're looking at an hours worth of easy work, maybe a little more.

I had a shop replace the right side of my truck (95f150) for ~$150 with parts and labor.

The bad thing about paying a shop is that the bushings to do both sides are only about $10. You might have to grind off rivet heads and replace them with bolts, but you just take the bracket off the frame, swap the bushings, and bolt it back on.
