Control arm bushing replacement 200 1986

posted by  someone claiming to be oty on  Tue Oct 22 08:00 CST 2002 [RELATED]

When torquing the rear control arm bushings I use a racheting box end wrench. It is a quality brand and did not slip. This way you can get much more movement on the wrench vs a regular box end. I'll testify that if you torque the bushings before you put the suspension under a load, the bushings will wear out in under 5K miles. Live and learn.
