Replaced mine last year and it was not the easiest thing to do. The bushing fits tight so I had to beat them in w/a hammer. Just becareful not to bend them up, if I remember they are brass. When you knock the pin back in start the nut on one side just enough to prevent from damaging the treads when tapping it w/hammer. Oh and I lifted mine up w/ a chain hoist then lower back the same way. It easier to have someone helping you align holes when putting pin back in.
I'm no pro but hope this helped
