98 E150 Radius Arm Bushing R&R Completed

After doing much research in this forum I just made it through the procedure on my Clubwagon Chateau. It took two hours and used Moog K8268 kit from Ryder Fleet Products (about $30 w/shipping). Had over 130K on OEM bushies. The bracket bolts came off towards the outside of the van on each side. The nuts were fastened to the brackets to simplify the job. Lining the bracket holes with the frame holes was the hardest part of the whole job. An old Ingersal/Rand 1/2" elec impact made it much easier.
Now together with the new Moog ball joints I did a few weeks ago it drives SO much better. No wallowing and learching, no clanking from the big washer hitting the frame on big bumps. Last week I put on a set of Nokian Vatiiva extra load tires. Man she is riding pretty proud right now. I appreciate the research info I found here. Thank You. Harold H.
