1995 E350

one of our fleet vehicles is having a bad clanking underneath the passenger side floorboard. I've tracked it down to the drag link. The bushings seem to be shot. The axle bounces front to back when i hit a bump. How dif are the bushings to replace? Any suggestions as what all needs to be replaced, other than the bushings. sorry for the wierd questions. never messed with the suspension before.

I think you mean the radius arm bushings ?
if so they are not too bad, just time consumming
do a search of the susp. forum as there have been many
threads on this subject
also on uor vans the brackets are bolted on
from the factory and it makes it easier
you do have to drop the exh. though to get
the bolts out on the right side
