Front spring bucket replacement

[THE PARTS MAN]

I guess this is the best place to post this, let me know if its not. but on my 92 explorer the left front spring bucket broke in the back. Is there any guides on doing this job. also how hard is it to find a new one ? thanks for any help

The drivers side? You just torch/ grind the rivets out, get one from a ford dealer and use some grade 8 bolts to put the new one on. I also have some off my explorer that i removed when I bagged mine.

Ok calling the dealer in the morning I hope they have it in stock (yeah right lol) was it a hard job and other than the shock and spring coming off is there any thing else I need to remove to make this job go smother
