Tools Required

1. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
2. Support the vehicle with suitable jackstands under the axle.
3. Remove the tire and wheel assemblies. Refer to Wheel Removal in Tires and Wheels.
4. If removing the right bushings, disconnect the brake lines from the body. If removing the left bushings, disconnect the brake line bracket from the body and the parking brake cable from the hook guide on the body.

Notice: Do not suspend rear axle by brake hoses. Damage to hoses could result.

5. Remove the nut, bolt, and washer from the control arm and underbody attachment. Rotate the control arm downward. (Remove and install one control arm bushing at a time.)
6. Remove the bushing (2) using the following procedure:

6.1.	Install the J 29376-2 into the slot in the control arm.

6.2.	Position the J 29376-1 over the control arm end/bushing.

6.3.	Install the J hooks through the J 29376-1 and J 29376-2 tighten the attaching nuts until the tool is securely in place.

6.4.	Install the J 21474-19 bolt through the plate J 29376-7 and install into the J 29376-1.

6.5.	Place the J 29376-6A remover into position on the bushing.

6.6.	Install the nut J 21474-18 onto the J 21474-19 bolt.

6.7.	Remove the bushing from the control arm by turning the bolt.

1. Install the bushing (2) as follows:

1.1.	Install the J 29376 receiver on the control arm.

1.2.	Install the J 21474-19 bolt through the J 29376-A plate and into the receiver.

1.3.	Install the bushing on the bolt and position into the housing. Align the bushing installer arrow with the arrow on the receiver for proper indexing of the bushing. A high-pressure lubricant such as J 23444-A may be necessary for assembly.

1.4.	Install J 21474-18 (3/8 in) nut onto the J 21474-19 (3/8 in) bolt.

1.5.	Press the bushing into the control arm by turning the bolt. When the bushing is in the proper position, the end flange will be flush against the face of the control arm.

Important: The washer and nut must be installed on the outboard side.

2. Align the control arm and the underbody attachment.
3. Loosely install the bolt, the washer, and the nut.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

4. Install the left and right brake pipe brackets and the attaching screws.

Tighten
Tighten the screws to 11 N·m (97 lb in).

5. Install the tire and the wheel assemblies. Refer to Wheel Installation in Tires and Wheels.
6. Remove the jackstands and lower the vehicle to curb height.

Tighten
Tighten the control arm nuts to 80 N·m (59 lb ft), plus 120 degrees rotation using J 36660-A .
