I removed the torque rods to do this but would mark a spot you can access with a grease gun before removing them. Bushings are 2 piece and come out easily one the crush tube is pressed out. You will need some grease zerks, drill and tap. My favorite place do get this kind of stuff is EBAY. Most zerks are NPT thread so keep that in mind if you need to purchase a tap and drill bit. Metal was very easy to drill through. One other thing I did was to take a dremel and cut off wheel and added 5 equally spaced grooves along the length of the crush tube. Grease coverage was good as the grease inserted from the outside of the bushing traveled all the way to inside and along the grooves I made.
