Exclamation Need help w/ part identification

I have a 93 F150 4.9L. The front right of the truck is lower than the left side. I first thought it was a bad spring. But a closer look reviled a bad bushing. I am not sure what it is called but it is a rubber bushing that is attached to a part that could be called a track locator bar (attached to spring perch and runs back to frame under the foot well of the truck). The bushing is sandwiched between the mounting point and the bar. What is this called (bar) and what is the bushing called? Is it hard to replace?

Thanks,

Justin (New!!!! Ford truck Owner)

Justin,
Is the bushing you need in front of or in the rear of the arm? If you can tell me I can give you the part #.

there are 2 bushings per side--

left-D9TZ-3B203-A
-F2TZ-3B203-A

right-D9TZ-3B203-A
-F1TZ-3B203-A

hope this helps-fairly good install-you may have the drill some rivits-just replace them with bolts when you put it all back together.
Good Luck
