WillisRR Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Just after a little advice. I have to replace the rear hub to lower damper fork bushes. In the past have you guys been able to do this with the hubs still on the car? Really can't be arsed to take the hubs off if i can help it!

ZMANALEX Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Unfortunately the bushings require pressed in and out and I always remove the hub for this job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WillisRR Posted April 9, 2017 Author Share Posted April 9, 2017 I imagine the other bushes/bolts are more than likely seized too. Lets hope not! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 (edited) It is usually only the shock bolts that seize. All the others are bolts and nuts. Edited April 10, 2017 by ZMANALEX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPhoboS Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 I took my ones off and used my bearing press when fitting the SPL bushings. BUT... One of them didn't fit - so I made this, threaded rod/sockets/washers and yeah, you could technically leave it on IMHO: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
