panhard rod bushes

<< < (2/3) > >>

Disco-andy:
I used a hole saw to cut/drill the rubber out then hack saw through the outer sleave.

Disco-Ron:
I used a big vice, and a large socket to allow the outer sleeve to slide into it, it started it moving, then i think i used a sleeve or another socket to push the outer out of the rod..... same/opposite operation to insert the new ones....

stuntman:
I've just done mine, literally last night.

It was one hell of a ball ache, I put the rod in a vice and set a burner at the right height and left it for half an hour, the bush was completely burnt out and the outer sleeve was then hammered and punched out byt bending the lip on o=both sides inwards.

clbarclay:
If the rubber bush is shot then in my expeiance the the central metal tube wont take much pushing out (2 sockets and a vice) or alternatively drilling or hole sawing the rubber should suitably weaken the rubber enough.

alex_mh:
mine was really easy to do, they knocked out easily with a 22mm socket, greased up the new ones and they slid in easily enough using the vce. only took 10 mins, love easy jobs like that!
