how to do this but I cannot find anywhere 1 for a
1994 it seems to be pretty easy I just would feel
more confident if I had a video or even a detailed
explanation of how to do it if anybody can help me

Dig in and get your hands greasy. It is easy and as you work on it you will gain confidence. Be careful not to over tighten the VC bolts!

Visit your local auto parts store and get a repair manual. There'll be step by step instructions on how to do this and pictures. For a beginner this may be a daunting job. But with a little bit of patience and the repair manual you can do it! Remember, every expert was once a beginner! Hope that helps! Jim
