75 series steering knuckle question

Post by sava75 »

can anyone help me with this question????
On the back of the knuckle spindle there is a brass bush.
Mine is flogged. Broke a CV and demolished an axle on the last trip.
How is this bush removed?
Is it an easy replacement job?
Anyone had experience with damage to this bush?
thanks in advance.

Yeah thats pretty common mate, the bush can be removed by using a long punch through the other end of the spindle and driving it out.

Reinstall it with some retaining compound if possible and a brass drift only.

Goood luck
