With the help of those on this forum I was able to replace shocks, springs, and rubber parts at the back end of the car. Thank you! Now on to the front.

I am going to replace the front shocks, steering dampner, and maybe the lower ball joints since the rubber boots have been torn. Now for the question.

The PO already has replaced the guide rod mounts but for some reason only replaced the rear bushing in the guide rod mount carrier. The front bushing is old and should be replaced. How do I do this? Do I have to treat this like renewing the guide rod bushing?

Thanks!
