Bilstein Strut Housing: Internal Bushing Replacement
I have the dreaded wobble of my new strut insert in the strut housing. I would like to have the old bushings pulled and new bushings installed. I read the bushings that Bilstein are suppling during their rebuilds are shorter (20 or 40mm?) and others have sourced longer bushings (50+mm) which seem to last longer.
Question, who is rebuilding the struts these days? And who supplies the best bushings so I don't have to do this again?
Is there a tool to purchase, borrow, rent, etc so I can pull the old bushings myself? Or should I leave this to the pro's?
This seems to be a relatively common problem, but not a lot of info about it here on the Pelican for the DIY'r. Other than send them to Bilstein for a rebuild.
Thanks,
Paul
