i need to replace all my bushings cause they are cracked
should i get a polyurethane bushing kit or get oem?

and how hard is it to do
cause i need to replace my left lower control arm
and this mech at work was like we need to send it out to get the bushings put in it
he was saying something about squeezing them and it's almost impossible to do (with the urethane ones)

so i figured the bushings on the sway bar would be hard too


any help/suggestion would be great, pics too:thumbup:

thanks
Ry

 

I got the polyurathane kit and htat was the best 100 bucks i ever spent on my car

Do you have that black bushings or the red ones. I am trying to find the black bushings.

 

i have the black ones

 

can't remember how it was done, but I believe that it is pushed into place by a machine over a long period of time?

 

oh

are the bushings for the swaybar hard to install?

 

no. i was referring to the bushings for the lca? the swaybar bushings are held on with a bracket and 2 bolts

 

ok my bad

so the sway bar should be easier

 

yep:

I really don't know if I'm correct, but the Lower Control Arm bushing is the one that needs to be pressed...
