Hi Guys,
I've been working with Mark and Matt at 914 Rubber over the past few weeks to refine the installation process and shoot a video for their a-arm bushing kit. Happy to report that it's finally ready for primetime! Shout outs to Bruce and Cary for all their contributions as well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AysZlHr2lM And here's a video on how I removed the a-arms and bushings using a press and heat... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qa-apYYIjlg Coming soon... – 914 Rubber master cylinder install – "Bench" bleeding in the car – 914 Rubber Rebuilt steering rack with turbo tie rods – Front wheel bearing replacement Hope you enjoy my videos. Just trying to give back to this amazing community. Apologies in advance for worsening the addiction. Have fun with all the innuendo. Can't wait to read the comments (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Ian |

I have a few suggested twists for this superb filmh (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)
First, if you have a smooth floor, put something down to catch the soap. I am too old to slip and fall indoors. Ice outside happens no matter what. Second is to use an impact gun on the tool side. It gives a faster, more even pressing, again saving time. You want to wrench at the tool end so you can watch the progress. An alternative that is a bit quicker yet is to make the double nut ahead of time and put that in the vise grips. This only works with the power tool if you have a long enough socket. I started using an impact gun with a gear puller when rebuilding the transmissions for my cars.
