Re: (Loveless)
that's not what I meant.. but yea, the first ones are good but the second ones you posted are more solid since it replaces the rubber bushings completely.Loveless wrote:
what does that suppose to mean?
are you saying that this is hollow and so so good as these?
didn't someone on this forum asid cutting/burning the old bushing off resulted in rusting in the long run?
it is far more difficult to put those in though, I got the first ones and it was cake and work perfect.
Re: (Anand)
They say to freeze the solid bushings for about an hour and they'll fit right in the hole.... since metal contracts when it's cold and expands when hot.
Re: (grimple1)
Its far more complicated than that. you have to remove the whole subframe, and torch, cut, saw for hours to get the old bushings out before you can wack the new ones in. There is a writeup on here somewhere.grimple1 wrote:They say to freeze the solid bushings for about an hour and they'll fit right in the hole.... since metal contracts when it's cold and expands when hot.
