Brian, that is good timing. You also had the needed tools as well, I am sure.
I did the LCA bushing on the left side, but realized that it wasn't required. I won't be doing the right side.

The guide rod mounts were original, and questionable. Couldn't quite pin down the reason that the SD would pull on braking, so they get changed on principle. I'll also use the opportunity to change the bearing bracket bushings, although some think they last the life of the vehicle.

Yep, I did have all the tools, with the exception of the puller for the wheel bearing seal. That little, miserable job took nearly 30 minutes.
