castor bushes

Post by karol »

i found out that my radius arm bushes are on its way out. i thought that i can fit castor bushes instead of standard ones (have 2" lift). my question is, if it is something i can do by my self. i dont have a press but i thought i could use bottle jack somehow. did anyone try it? or is there some other way how to press them in at home.
cheers

You will definitely need a press, sometimes it takes 10+ tonnes to get them out.

That's my experience too.
This is not legal advice.

If you want to save some coins, take the arms out yourself, and take them to someone who can set them up.
They are a PITA without the right gear, especially if you get the castor correction ones in misaligned
