Sandblasted, zinc phosphated and first coat of POR-15 is on. Getting close to installing the front position and rear position bushings in the refurbed control arms on my 245 and I was wondering: is there anything I should do to make the pressing a little easier such as a slight film of oil, teflon spray, grease, etc on the outer metal shells that might also act a bit as (minor) rust inhibitor?
And what's not good to get on the new rubber bushings?
