I just got a set from Porsche, and looking at the bushings, install could be interesting. |

I borrowed the Elephant Racing tools from a fellow member and used copious amounts of hand soap and my 12 ton HF press. I also used the Elephant instructions to index the ends. It is important that when pressing them on, they should be as close as possible to the final indexing because moving them is tough if you are concerned about scraping up your new powder coating.
914Rubber bushings are very close to the original in rubber stiffness. ER is not. |
