--- Quote from: "mmgemini" ---Why all this talk about presses to pull a couple of suspension bushes out.
Get some threaded rod with a couple of nuts to fit the rod.A few washers of different sizes and Fanny's your aunt.  :D

I never used a press even at work.  :P

Couldn't figure out how you use this method to get them out so just cut the old ones out. But this method really worked well for putting the new ones in, top tip thanks Mike.

Oh and here is my saying, quite similar to yours
"And Robert is your mothers brother" best said with a cockney accent as in the film "Snatch"

Sorry guys but I've been away for a week.

I use a small fastener company.
Teeside Industrial Fasteners. I was in there the other week and a guy is getting some screwed rod. Someting like 3/4" stuff. He had a few rods in his hand.

I asked him in passing about the rod.
I use it for replacing spring and suspension bushes he told me.

So even in a HGV workshop they still use that method.

Fanny's my mothers sister  :twisted:
