There’s a pretty good chance I may be removing these on Labor(!) day, is there a recommended/preferred tutorial for this procedure? I’ve seen a YouTube video or two, but they’re not as descriptive as I’d hoped for. This’ll be my first rodeo...

I don’t know what’s happened to the search feature but it ain’t what it used to be.


Thanks in advance all.

I heat up the trailing arm around th he bushing until it starts to smoke. Then use a gear puller to push the shaft in easy the bushing. Then go to the other end and push the shaft back thru that bushing.
Installing rubber bushings is a lot harder.
