How do you press these bushings out? The cross shafts prevent getting an arbor onto the backside of the bushing. I tried the search function but couldn't find anything. Maybe I used the wrong catch words.

SS70ElCaminoOwner Mar 21st, 07, 4:48 PM The end that goes around the bushing is open (it is a 3/4 circle). If that does not make sense I can post a picture. Any good parts store should have the tool for loan or rent. Let me know if you would like a picture.:waving: |
