In order to replace the bushing on your Sterling Tow Bar with a new Split Nylatron Bushing # RM-200029-00 you'll need to remove the 3/4" lock nut to remove the knuckle and slide the shaft out. From there you'll use a flat head screwdriver and needle-nose pliers to remove the old bushing. The new bushing can then be slid in and the shaft replaced working backwards to reassemble the tow bar.
