easy way to change the radius arm bushings


I have poly bushings on my truck. Been there for 4+ years. Hasn't torn anything up, but mine is also a 2wd if that matters.
 
More dumb noob questions. Does my 94 4.0 4x4 have these? What sorta symptoms do bad ones give? Better yet, what happens if they fail.? Rat is no stranger to pulling gear. I used a come along and a chain to keep the frame from sagging when I repaired it and the LF cab support. The Rat is my first Ranger so I have no basis of comparison. It seems a little imprecise handling compared to the BMW :icon_rofl:
 
I had one go that ate through the bracket and made noises when I changed direction. theyre there for a better, quieter ride.
 
I ground the rivets off and removed the radius arm brackets. Replace the rivets with grade 8 bolts.

How many rivets need to be replaced with grade 8 bolts and what size?
Likewise, what size is the big lockbolt that goes on the end of the R.A?

BTW, this is for a '96 Ranger, not my '99.
