Sway Away Heim Bearing

[Bergger]

I've had Racerunner 2.0 coils on my 03 Tacoma for several years know. Occassionally they would squeak but nothing a little wd40 would not fix. Lately the drivers side has gotten worse and will not completely go away. I suspect the heim bearing is wearing out and needs replacement. Has anyone ever replaced a heim bearing? I am hoping it is something that I can do in my garage. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

make sure you get the c clip out from one side of the bearing and then get an impact or normal socket that is about the same size (or a bit smaller) than the bearing and knock it out. its not hard at all. (use the socket to punch the thing out with a hammer or something big and heavy)
