Hey everyone,

I have some nice shimmies under brakes:mad0259:, i found some nice play in my front control arm bushings, the ones at the rear with the 3 bolt bracket. I have a set coming in and will come with the bushing in the mounts. I am curious as to knowing if i have to remove the control arm from the vehicle to change these with a press? I have done some research which has produced minimal info. I want to change these but unsure of when i can access a press. Any info can and will be useful and appreciated.

You will have to lever the rear of the arms down to pull the mounting bracket off.
Normally bushes come in the removable bracket. If not I have pressed them out in the past just using a vice and large sockets.
