j30 diff bushing help.

[costa_rican13]

so i just got some stance j30 bushings. and well i need to remove the old rubber bushings. my problem is when i pushed out the old bushings the whole bushing didnt come out. in the middle metal tube with some rubber came out. so i still need to push the rest of it out... can any of you guys give me some advice as to how you all pushed it out?

[costa_rican13]

pretty sure if i understand correctly most people will just burn the old ones out. unless i am completely misunderstanding your post

get a sawzall and let the man in you manifest itself

[costa_rican13]

the rubber part with the metal tube that bolt goes in already came out. its the rest of the bushing which is metal.

whats sawzall? im not understanding your post..manifest what?

Have you taken a goood look at your new bushing set to make sure it has outside metal rings?

Some of the sets tell you to leave the original outer metal inserts in the arm, clean it out and the new bushing fits into it.

Make sure you've read all of your instructions because if you push it out or damage it the new bushing may not work and then you have to go buy OEM rubber bushings to start over.

If the outer metal ring does need to come out then use a tool like this:
