Radial bearing replacement

I took my 96 f-250 to a shop to get a front-end alignment. They told me after waiting for quite a while that they could not align it without replacing my radial bearings. I don't remember the exact price quote they gave me to do this, but do recall it was high. I would like to do this myself, but have no idea how. Where is this bearing and how do you replace it? I really hope that one of you nice people can help me out with this problem. I really appreciate any help possible because my Haynes manual never mentions this. Thanks much.

Are you sure they didn't say radius arm bushings?

Yes, that's what I thought too, so I checked out my radius arm bushings and they look fine. I can see no problem with them at all.

Any bearing can be considered radial, there all round. You'll have to ask them to be more spacific.
