I am in the process of replacing my control arm bushings. Was wondering if the front caps can be tapped out and then replaced (reused)? Was hoping to use my allthread press to pull the new bushings into place.

tap them out
Flaten them on the bench gently so as not to stretch the metal and put them back in... Hose out the inside of the a-arm to rid yourself of all the crud in there. Rich |
