I used to do them for people, but not anymore. I wrote up the instructions and they are available on my club's website, pnw-sdac.org and on boostedmopar.net.
You just need 4, 10mm bronze lined female rod ends. 1, 10mm bronze lined male rod end. 10mm bolts, lock nuts, nylock nuts, rod end washers (2 per rod end), and 4, 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 flanged bushings. The big tricks are getting the plastic off the rod ends, the rods threaded and the old metal balls removed and the holes drilled to fit the new bolts. You'll need to buy or borrow and metric tap and die set to thread the rods for the new rod ends. The plastic rod ends can be snapped off using a vise. The metal balls can be ground or drilled off adn the holes drilled out to fit the bolts. The rod end at the end of the main tube simply unscrews and is already threaded for the new one. The bronze bushings are for the arms that pivot. Just pry or grind the old ones out. You may need to clean up the holes a bit to get the new bushings to fit. Just make sure you make note of the orientation of the various pieces so that it will go together properly when done. Be sure to use nylock lock nuts and loctite to prevent things from coming loose.
