Jeff,

I have seen these bushings offered with a metal retainer kit as well as a rubber seal.

Does your kit include these items as well?
 
Ken,

I can look into getting the extra parts to make it a "complete" kit but it will take me some time. Once I locate the metal retainer(the grommet will be easy) I'll update the online store.
 
Is the metal retainer necessary?

My z bar is empty inside. All I have is the seal floating on the transmission side ball. I have none of the bushings at all.

I don't know how the clips go in either, as I didn't have any to take apart. Mine was just floating on the locating balls. Any pictures available?
 
I don't feel that the retainer is necessary but it does help when installing the z bar into place. I don't have a picture but the way I install everything is start with applying some real tacky grease to the balls. Set the bushings on the balls, slide the ball that bolts onto the bell housing into the z bar and then slide the z bar over the ball mounted on the frame.

Edit - there are also very detailed pictures in the factory service manual. If you haven't purchased one yet I would certainly consider it.
