Hello All:
1967 Volvo 122S Wagon. Thanks again to all who advised me on changing the lower ball joint. It went on beautifully and you just appreciate more and more the engineering of these beasts, no?
On August 18th I will be dropping off the lower a-arms to Jeff Bosco of Precision Machine in Valhalla, NY (yes, that is a plug - the guy is great) to have the new control arm bushings pressed into place and I realize that in my bushing kit there is a bushing for the idle arm of the steering system. Am I correct in assuming that this needs to be pressed in (and the old one removed) in a manner similar to the lower control arm bushings, or is this a do-it-yourself-without-a-hydraulic-press kind of thing? How do I determine what type of idle arm I have (I, II or III) without taking the thing off first?
Cheers,
Jeff Pucillo
