Get yourself a copy of the FSM for that year.
It's all in there and can be downloaded here.....

Unfortunately, the FSM shows the use of dedicated tooling that few, if any, have...so this calls for some Yankee Ingenuity.

Personally, I use an H-frame press and an assortment of tubing scraps to press the bushings out and in. I'm sure others here have their pet methods that they can pass along.

Large 1/2" drive socket sets are really useful for this purpose because they come in a wide assortment of sizes, and you can use the extensions to make them longer, like an erector set.
