Help on anti roll bar bushing please. PIC.
 
Removed my brake booster yesterday and found the leaking M/C had done a number on the paint underneath it. I'm going to try and remove the goop that the paint has transformed into and prime it and re-paint properly. I figured while I was "in there" I might try to replace the rubber anti roll bar bushings. In this picture I see a kind of metal bracket covering the rubber bushing and two nuts holding it in place. I'm guessing I can simply unscrew this bracket and then pull the rubber bushing out and push the new one in there. Am I missing anything for this procedure? I have to get it done quite soon so if there are any special tools that are required I'd really need to know. Can't afford to get myself into a situation over my head.

I'll look up in the FSM, and see if there is anything to it.

Take off the two nuts, remove cover, replace rubber bushing, install cover and install nuts.

The replacement bushings I got from the dealership were not pre-split, so I had to cut them myself. Took a big knife and a lot of muscle, the rubber is pretty tough.

Thank's for the assistance. It seems fastlane does not have any such bushings so I'll have to look to the dealer.
