(IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) HOW ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)
My first and possibly last time doing the rear bushings (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I've spent almost 30 minutes trying to get one of these damned things on. I popped all 4 onto the ball ends of the bar and the shock mounts, but how in the hell do you get the drop links on ? You can't put the links on first because the bushings collapse under the force without the ball insde for support. I've tried the bench vise, the press, smacking it with a hammer. All it will do is cock to one side and start compressing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I've slatherd the outside with pet. jelly, should I get that off and do it dry ?

Grease, vise or channel locks, screwdriver. Bushing will deform in link, but will eventually seat. Use screwdriver to pry the ends into the link. My experience anyway.
Use big ass channel locks, grease to push drop link onto ball. |
