radius arm bushings

Co-worker has '96 F150 XL 4x2 and the dr side radius arm bushings at the frame bracket have come out of it. Not worn, they're completely gone. We're looking at replacing them on Monday. Could anybody direct me to a step by step tech article on replacing the bushings. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

If the bracket is bolted on you just unbolt the bracket and slide it off. Then install the new bushings and bolt the bracket back on.

If its riveted on then you need to grind the rivets off and buy some bolts to replace them.

I did mine last month. Pretty easy since mine were bolted on.
