Bought this for a 68 Chevelle after researching ways to do this. This was the best investment I’ve done in a long time. Total time: 5 minutes for removing the passenger upper, and 5 minutes for removing the passenger lower. And that includes setting up the tool. Definitely worth it.

I was taught to use air impact hammer to "vibrate" them out and in in standard uppers. Lowers were a little harder. 3 hrs book time, 20 min per side +alignment.

I had a clunkity klunk issue so I bought a set of control arms. I had the car up, tires off and was ready to change them out when I saw that there were 2 bolts loose on one side and 1 on the other. Just a quick tightening and I would have been done with it all. Since I was half way there and beside me were 2 new Beck Arnley control arms, it was a no brainer. Well, the rest is history and they perform like a champ. Moral of the story is, check for loose bolts before you spend money replacing something that knocks and Klunks.

If you put the new bushing in the freezer over night the new bushing will slide in alot easier.

You HAVE to install a spacer between the U on the control arm to prevent bending it inward. The large socket is the receiver. The bushings may have to be adjusted to touch the frame.

It's better than to burn the upper bushing it's very good nice and simple to remove and replace upper control bushing thank you thank you -

Good work! Thank you for the tips! 👍

Good day. May I know what do you call the tool used so as not to deform the arm while removing the bushing?

[johnwhite]

Well if you are doing bushings you should do balljoints right? Is this tool going to do ball joints doubtful i can't think of how that would work. Ball joint press also will do bushings so buy one tool with multiple uses this tool can only do one thing. But you have to do ball joints anyway so balljoint press makes more sense to me than this.

I don't know why people struggle using C clamps when they got space (holes) for those encapsulated bushings. Just use a threaded rod (big bolt) washers nuts and castellated sockets or normal ones to press them easily or remove them. I use power tools on them tho, never had a problem. I dislike C presses because the rod rotates, and move the parts along the way stopping it from going straight.

Well, ain't that just slicker than snot on a doorknob!

And they want a $100 for some nuts, bolts and washers. Smh. I'll make my way over to Autozone and borrow their bushing remover.

Where can I buy the 'spacer handle' that keeps you from crushing the double walls together??

[quesnoy]

Great video. Also, the background music is stuck in my head. Where do I know that song from? Please tell me...

[tteuvky]

why the bushing is always hard to remove and insert back in lower control arm?

[johnhurley]

Yes I do have a, I was wondering if you guys ever run into the Mac Camelback bushings then is there a tool for that that is my question
