850 trailing arm link replacement 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Ozzie on  Mon Nov 15 17:34 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Has anyone ever replaced the trailing arm link (bushing assy) on a 94' 850? The part was $194.00 at the local dealer (ouch). Alldata has instructions that call for a special puller installer tool "999 5497 Press" to remove-install the link from the trailing arm. Just wondering if anyone has done the job with or with out the press tool. The instructions lead me to believe the job is rather simple. Raise vehicle, support trailing arm, remove front support brackets, remove link bolt (hammer if needed) drop arm to clear install puller, remove link. Reverse to install. Does one really need the puller or will some other method work?
Thanks in advance,
