Upper Control Arm Bushings 2wd 1500
Good luck I hope it works for you. They didnt need replaceing on mine, but I figured since i was doing everthing else I would do those.
Since everything said they werent serviceable I didnt bother.
Let us know how it works out for you.

yeah i ordered parts before reading the service info.
i dont see why they arent serviceable.
they arent welded in as far as i can see. and every other suspension with this type of set up they can be serviced.
and the parts can be purchased.. makes me say wtf? ya know.
this tool is slotted especially for removing upper bushings in the cam/arm type suspension. maybe ill pick one of those up if i cant get the shop press on it.

I need new bushings for my 4wd pretty bad, i called don thuren to see if he had or could make stock replacements instead of the flimsy tin stockers, he said sure, but to wait he, was revamping or getting a newer style bushing that didnt wear out as fast, no price yet, i know its apples and oranges, but thought i would share

If you figure this out, it would be nice if you would take pictures and write-up a How-To procedure for replacing them.
