Control arm bushing replacement 200

Jim,

I recommend you pay him! It's the best money you'll ever spend. If you try to beat those things out or use the giant bench vise technique you stand about a 50% chance of damging the control arm and even if you don't, by the time you're done you will have worked for about $1/hour...with no compensation for the aggravation!

I recently did my 86 245 and even with a press, torch and penetrating oil, it took 6 gorillas and a stalk of bananas.

Good Luck,

John M
