How do U know it's a bad lifter? What are the symptoms? If it'a a tapping, the first thing i would do is pull the valve covr and see what's up inder there and adjust the rocker arms.
There are several "shade tree mechanic" things U can do that might fix the problem, but we need more info!!!

Pull the intake and valve covers. Remove all of the pushrods. Remove all of the lifters. Replace the lifters with new ones. Soak the new ones in oil for about a day. Do a search for setting the lash. Done.
