It depends on whether you can get new pins and bushings in standard sizes to fit the machine. Then it is a case of pressing or sledgehammerring them out, then rigging up something to press the bushings in and slip the pins in. However, if the pins were neglected to the point where the bushing holes are no longer round, welding or line boring will be needed.
On my machine, stuff was metric, hard to get if not impossible, and things were well worn. I got quotes starting at $550 to rebush just one set of pin holes on the bucket so I ended up buyiong an old lathe and making my own bushing holders out of steel round stock. I pressed in Timken roller bearing races for a replaceable bushing surface, and installed pins that fit the bearings. The holders were welded into torched out holes in the bucket. Not extremely precision, but it works.
What do you mean by OVERTHROW? Is it swinging beyond where you intended? That may be an entirely different problem, depending on how your boom swing is powered.
Welcome to the wonderfully expensive world of old backhoe repair.;-)
