Look on the how to of this section datatek had written a how to do it
You should fit as a pair if one is worn the other will be near its end too
All you need to buy are the retaining clips as the originals will be corroded and some thick wire would help

Absolute piece of **** of a job, 15 mins per side armed with no more than a long screwdriver, an old wire coathanger, a short crow bar (not always needed) an axle stand and a jack.
