can anyone give me some details on how to replace the link pin bushes on a vy commodore?

are you just putting the top bushes on or are you putting the compleate link rod and bushes on?. if your putting just the bushes on all you need is a 16mm spanner(ratchet spanner works great if you have one), undo the nut at the top on both sides and push the sway bar down and turn the strut full lock and push the link down and out, remove and replaes bushes and reverse what you did to take them off and tighten them up. if using polyurethane bushes just tighten the nut enough so you can just turn the washers, do not over tighten loke rubber or they will spilt and fall out. if your replacing the whole link do as above then undo the link nut off the sway bar and take out. if you dont have bushes yet the pedder(part#ep4251) or nolathane(part #42451) work the best because of there shape.
