sequence of work - driveline support bushing and trailing arm bushings... 200

posted by  someone claiming to be macs245 on  Sat Oct 28 10:56 CST 2023 [RELATED]

Been a while since I've been on the Brickboard. My daily drivers for the past 8 years have been Audi and BMW - however I still keep the daughter's 89' 240 (Sven) because quite frankly it has been more reliable than the others.

That said I need to replace both the driveline support bushing/bearing and also the dreaded Trailing Arm bushings. I'm certain the latter are completely shot and no longer have any connection within the outer sleeve. My thought is I must fix the TAB first lest the driveline shift with a new bushing and potentially tear it up. The replacement TABs won't arrive till Monday night, I have all parts for driveline repair so could do that first. I won't be driving the 240 much till all the work is done.

Thoughts?

Thanks gents & ladies. The Brickboard has always been my favorite car forum.
