  • Fitting control arm bushes..

    Hi all,

    Going to try and fit some control arm bushes on the front and just wondering if anyone else has done it before? Any help would be good

    They can be hit out but you will need a plastic hammer to hit back in also if you going to do the small front ones these will have to be pressed in as there way to tight

        It looks like you have the easy option with those 2 part bushes.

        They are usually 1 part with the metal sleeve pushed through.
        The single part bush needs to be pushed through, that lip makes it hard work. The 2 part looks like you put 1/2 in each side.

        The is the single style
