89 flhtc rear caliper bushings
I replaced mine a year or two ago.
Just tore the old ones out, then pushed the new ones in. IIRC, I ended up using a piece of 3/16" filler rod (with a nice, blunt end) to push the new ones through until the shoulder snapped in place.

Also, inspect the surface where the aluminum shim sits on, where the brake pad "hooks" sit. The shims sometimes wear through and that area of the bracket can be damaged. If it's bad, the brake pads will move around and can even fall out when riding. Don't ask me how I know. LOL..

Easy job, just clean it all up, replace those stupid shims and gently knock them in.
