Take the arms with you to applied so they can remove the old bushings and press and ream the new ones. Your pins look like mine did. While your wallet is shrinking, get the bogie greasers too.

There are some cheap pins being sold by GMC shops that are not heat treated.
Hard to believe that there is that much stress developed there, but
GMC people hardened the original , so we do it and know it will last.
Our 1 1/4 smaller pins have two grease holes like the larger 1 1/2 pins.
