Default sway bar bushing replace?

hey all, just wondering how hard is it to replace those bushing? Do I need any special tools? Or it just unscrew the bolt, replace the rubber part and screw the bolt back on? It for a 95accord lx lower front sway bar.

Thanks

standard handtools should work fine. I thought you have to remove the bar, grease the bushing and slide it over the bar, no?

Pretty easy. I suggest keeping the 2 wheels off the ground. Obviously sway bar is to make the car level, and when you take jack up 1 side, it's gonna push down on the that jacked up'ed side.

Anyways remove the 2 bolts holding the bushing. You do not need to remove the swaybar connections at the suspension arms. The bushing itself has an opening, like a cut in it. take it out, put it in and there you go. 30 mins i think.
