I just purchased some PST Polygraphite Bushings for my Control Arms on my 70. Reading through the posts Im confused if I need to lube them up prior to install so they wont squeak. If so, what is the easiest way to remove the inner ring to lube 'em up?

Thanks,

Dave

I believe that it is just the polyurethane bushings that have the squeak/bind issue.

the polygraphite you don't lube- they are impregnated with graphite which is supposed to take care of that for you.

You still need to lube Polygraphite prior to installation with the supplied grease tube.

Take a screwdriver and put it through the inner sleeve hole. Place the back of the screwdriver down on a table and push the bushing down. It should start to come apart.

Any questions, please give our customer service a call at (800) 247-2288 x360

Thanks!

:) Right from the horses mouth! :thumbsup:

I was wrong again:sad:

As said, lube them. But the easiest way to install them AND get the bushing out is to stick them in the freezer for several hours first.
