I was looking around. And I'm kinda installing it too at this very moment. But how exactly do you remove the bushing that always fail on TL's. I looked all around for a DIY and to my surprise there isnt one? If anyone could help me out right now. I'd be extremely happy... It's rusted in there VERY tightly and I pounded on it and put PB on it.. But it's still there. If anyone has a recommendation. I'd like to hear them. Thanks.


PS: Lower control arm bushings. They rott all the time and crack. There's another thread all about them. Just I know not of how to remove them. And I'm at the job this very moment.

 

are you talking about the bushing that the shocks fork goes thru?

 

This thread can be closed. I resolved the issue. Not really worth a thread for it anyways. You needed a press. I was able to find a way around it however.

 

Can you enlighten me on how to move around the press issue? I also need to replace them, but do not have acess to a press. Thanks i advance.

 

You can use an air hammer and try to hit the metal part of the bushing but try not to directly hit the control arm.

Your going to have to press it in though.
So I would just take the control arm to a shop and have them do it.

 

Did you end up ordering the OEM bushing? I wonder how long it'll last. I'm worried about that. If it lasts 7 years more, I'd live with it.
