I am replacing the suspension bushings in my car and i have come to the conclusion it would be alot easier with a large press.

Does anyone know of a shop that will press out my control arm bushings etc for me.

thanks!

burn them out with a propane torch

Where you live/work? If you want i can press them out when I get a couple of minutes at work, either drop them off at my place or come by work and drop them off.

I say burn them out. I just did mine that way and it is fun and easy.

Good find, actually. I never knew there were places you could rent a hoist, paint booth, air tools for use, ect.

Will consider next time a big job comes up.

u wrench is pretty decent,

pressed out all my bushings for a whopping $10 they had everything i needed....

It seem kind of ghetto but it gets the job done.... better than buying a $20 torch and making a mess imho



anyways i would go back if need be
