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 |

By the way the OE durometer is 92. You can't be 30% more! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Sorry but 92 (assuming the shore A scale) is wildly incorrect, and is the equivalent of skateboard or shopping cart wheel rubber. To get an accurate OE durometer figure, you should buy both a NOS genuine control arm and a new genuine control arm (made to the original specs) and remove the bushings to take measurements, as URO did. These control arms are expensive, but it's the only way to get it right. Just did the math, our HD performance bushings are indeed 27% more resistant to deformation than OE. Facts are facts. |
