Place new arm in position and start bolt in coffin arm (do not tighten) install front bolt and tighten. Now tighten coffin arm bolt, (this keeps bushing in neutral state). Repeat other side. Now turn ramps around and drive off. Took less than 20 min per side.
That is the way to do it! The ramps are in the way, so reversing them solves that problem.
