Sway Bar bushing install
I got new sway bar bushings for my car to replace the missing one and the very old one that is already on there. I cannot get them in, I have tried grease, WD40 and even heated them up with a heat gun with no luck so far. Anyone have any tricks for installing these? Then, once I get them into the holder, any tricks on pushing them on the sway bar bolt? I am out of ideas. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1097338305.jpg

I warm them up, lube'em with silicone grease, then use a big C-clamp to squeeze them on.

I used a vise and a rubber mallet, but Guy's idea with the C-clamp sounds easier.

Yup, C-clamp. Or vise. You may have to poke at it in spots with a screwdriver or other similar implement.
I use a bar clamp to install the drop-link on the car. It can be a little tricky, though. I usually put the one corner of the car in the air, then use a jack to move the trailing arm up until the ball stud position matches the drop-link position. Then squeeze it on with a clamp. --DD |
