Support rod joint repair 300SD

[powdrluvr]

Hello, I just bought a kit to replace the support rod joint repair bushings and am looking around for a how to on the install. ************** sells a kit with instructions but I found the parts for much cheaper. I can get the instructions for 20 bucks from Mercedes source (still cheaper then their kit with the parts I bought) but was wondering if that is neccesary. I looked on the DIY link on this site and their are some directions but they don't seem that clear. From what I undertand, I should jack up the car. Remove the bolts from behind the bushings and count the number of threads that I see before removing the control arm. Unscrew the control arm push out (or pull with a come along) the bushings, replace and screw the control arm back on so that the same amount of threads are showing. Does that sound right? Is this that hard of job to tackle? Should I just buy **************'s instructions? Thanks for any help or advice.
