I purchased Elephant Racing poly bronze bushings for the rear. I spent a ton of time and several broken drill bits removing the stock rubber from one trailing arm.
This task was a big PIA. Is there another way, for those who don't have a 20-ton press, to remove these bushings? Any advice is appreciated. |
