Question. Why do you not use the hydraulic press to remove the old bush rather than the hammer & chisel?

[dannyjackson]

Good video, you have helped me out, I've got a 98 slk with 149k and tired bushes. Thanks bro and respect

So all i can find is what they do and how to remove etc how or where does the bushing joint articulate when the arm goes up and down the inner tube on the bolt??

Just some advice I've had clunking noises from car on rough roads took car to garage they say its the suspension bushes they need replacing the quote is £272.10 is this a reasonable cost for that Job ??

[chris]

Any idea of the average cost to have this done?

[justinmoore]

Definitely worth noting that you'll probably need a wheel alignment after this type of work
