Make sure you get the highest quality parts possible.  So much junk out
there these days, you don't want to do this work twice.

Subject: Pressing control arm bushings

Craig Cowan was asking about upper control arm bushings and got some good
answers. I am about to replace every bushing in my entire suspension, front
and rear, and was wondering about the other bushings that do have to be
pressed out and in.

Is this something that can be done with a large vise or some allthread with
nuts and washers, or do I need to send the lower fronts and rears out to a
shop?

Thanks,

Jim
