It's not very hard with the correct parts.

I just did it on my 50 but same. Arms first and keep set up to do it the same with new set. Then body bar. Clean and painted and reinstalled. Do arms with weight of car on ground otherwise you will see a gap. I had a gap but when I lower car off stands it set right into place. I have pics if you want.

New body bushing tightened down nicely

New set up tighten just to point when rubber starts to squish not to much. Keep thread above nuts same or similar to original.

New set up rigged down
