Well, I need to replace the bushings, part numbers 52, 53, 54 and 55 on the control rod #50. Before I dive in, I might say that the service manual says little or nothing about it. If I remove the rear nut #51 can I slid the whole thing forward enough to replace the bushing and sleeve without having to remove the control rod where it bolts to the lower arm?

I'm remembering that those front bolts will need to be removed so that you can pull the rod out of the subframe opening and remove the other bushing. Now is a good time to go through the entire front suspension, if needed. You'll need to get the front end realigned whenever those bushing get changed.
