How hard is it to replace steering hardware?

It looks like simple bolt-ons for the center drag link, inner/outer tie rods and the pitman arm. Is it as simple as that, or is there a bunch of stuff I just don't know about?

JUst unbolt and seperate with hammer and pickle fork(if needed). I suggest you do all the links, bar and other hardware at the same time.
P.S. remember to count the amount of threads showing on the front links/ tie rods. You should get an aligment if you change all the pieces.
Good Luck

well, I havent done a lot - just the centerlink and the idler arm - but if you plan on doing it all, make sure you do it at the same time as you may end up going through the same trouble multiple times. Also, be careful of the studs on the centerlink - they rotate pretty easy so its a real PITA to get the tight...

Sounds like a simple unbolt/bolt procedure. I guess I'll start pricing MOOG parts and do it all at once. Thanks!
