Hi all:
Anyone have any good tips or techniques for replacing the bushings on the 444 (544 the same I think) rear suspension? I am going to replace with IPD poly bushings and am doing the "U" shaped bushings around the axle housing as well as the front pivots of the swing arms that connect to these. I have already done the torque rods at the top of the diff.
This stuff looks a bit different than the 122 I am used to! I am thinking I should do one "side" at a time (U bushing and pivot) but am certainly open to a better way if its out there! At this time I hope not to have to remove the arms themselves, will this create problems?


TIA & Cheers!
OK
