      Yes for the puller,but we couldn't have a flat and square location to seat it,so we cheated as much as possible without tearing up the bushing.
      I think they remove the rear end and press them out and in.

      I've hesitated 3 times and decided to not do it but i regret..
      It was 35 °C and i didn't know if i could install the bearing in the housing and then the bracket on the bushing quickly enough.
      So i didn't do it, and should have done it ,in two steps.

      I doubt the splines failed,or you wouldn't have suspension at all,all would be down to the ground.
      The torsions bars are maybe just worn out ,deformed by the extra weight after a long time.

    Plenty more 1/2 inch or 13mm nuts and bolts in the shed, ready to be used :-D.

    Hello good sir, I was wondering what the reason was for replacing the bushings? On my Kangoo of the same model, one of the rear wheels is suddenly lowered to the point the rim is almost in line with the arch... Could this be the fix ?

    • @michaelovitch
      @michaelovitch  6 місяців тому

      Hello,
      You problem is more a bearing problem on the suspension arms.
      The arm where the whell attach is rotating a a set of bearings, and when they are worn out,the top of the wheel goes inwards,towards the body.
      When you look at the car from the rear,you should see the wheel tilted.
      It's a common problem on Peugeot /citroen vehicles and it's not the bushings linking the rear end to the body,but the bearings in the rear end themselves.
      You can replace the bearings,or get the rear end replaced entirely.
      Look at youtube,there are plenty of videos on rear end bearings on PSA vehicles,so you can see the problem.

    Hello Michael,
    First of all, thank you for such a detailed video! Would you be kind enough to explain something? For the final step, starting with minute 13:00, is there any measurement or any way that you took into account the position of the metal arm that gets pressed onto the new bushing? I haven't done this operation on my car yet, and to my understanding, the angle at which you press the arm at this step will determine the height of the vehicle, since the bushing is immobile by its nature. Is my assumption correct?
    What's more important is that, I believe that if you do not respect the angle of mount of this arm, the new bushing might even break, right?

    • @michaelovitch
      @michaelovitch  5 років тому +1

      Hi,
      Thanks.
      The springs (wich are the bars i slide ) determine the ride height,by preloading them,by rotating them in their housing,wich is the arm at one extremity.
      The bushing should be installed with an angle corresponding to what you find when the vehicle is on its wheels ,not moving ,empty.
      This way,the bushing is only stressed ,and flexing, when suspensions are working,going up and down.
      It allows to eliminate useless flexing of the bushing the rest of the time.
      The bushing will not determine the ride height 100% since the springs are supporting the weight,the bushings being traversed by the spring,and not attached to it.
      However,yes,they also create some resistance to the arm movement,since the arm are pivoting thanks to the bushing ability to flex.
      They participate to absorbing energy,but not flexion resistant enough to determinate the ride height.
      If you instal the bushings with a crazy angle compared to what it should be when the car is supporting its own weight,yes, they will wear ,or simply tear apart quite quickly.
      I installed them by eye,here,wich was good enough.
      I marked the springs location however,to be sure i had the same ride height,same spring preload on both sides.

    • @Wholistic1
      @Wholistic1 5 років тому

      That sounds just about right. Thank you!
      One more thing please. How is the preloading done? I suppose you insert one end of the torsion bar in the middle housing (which is the fix/immobile one), but what about the end which has to be inserted through the new bushing, inside the arm? Do you rotate it by force?

    • @michaelovitch
      @michaelovitch  5 років тому

      @@Wholistic1 At one extremity both springs meet,in a splined housing 1:34
      At the other extremity of each spring ,they are also inserted in the arm,wich have also splines.
      The springs have nearly zero preload on them when the rear end is off the ground,shocks absorbers disconnected like here.
      That's why you can install tem by hand ,or just by rotating the arm slightly with a hydraulic jack few degrees to slide the bar easily ,with no force required.
      The springs go through the bushings,and are not connected to them at all.they just slide through.
      The springs preload start when you jack up the rear end to re-attach it to the shocks.
      You could also just lower the car and attach the shocks after,but you wouldn't have enough room to work easily.
      Exactly like on front struts with helicoidal springs, there is nearly zero preload on the strut once assembled.
      It's really minimum.

    • @Wholistic1
      @Wholistic1 5 років тому

      Ok Michael, I understand now. What I plan to do is, before the final step (13:00), I want to insert the torsion bar into the middle splines, and start pressing the metal arm directly onto the torsion bar, in the right position (by previously made markings). By doing this I will basically press the metal arm onto the bushing and also have it connected onto the torsion bar at the same time. I think that it would be more accurate, since it's not made by eye. Do you think that this would be a good approach?

    • @michaelovitch
      @michaelovitch  5 років тому

      @@Wholistic1
      It would be very tricky to press both the arm,and the bar , to align them perfectly so it slides in the central housing where both springs meet.
      Like i said,the bushing is not attached at all to the bar,so both can be separately installed.
      If you want accuracy,i suggest you to focus on pressing the bushing ,and the arm on the bushing with the correct angle.
      If the angle is correct, the bar will just slide in and align itself with no effort at all.
      I did it by eye,and i was very close.
      If you did it with measurments it will slide in.
      Trying to install both will force you to check the (heavy) bar alignement and angle constantly.
      I f i had to do it again i would heat up the rear end,insert a frozen bushing,then slide in instantly a hot arm on the still cold bushing.
      And i would measure and mark parts location.
      Make your own experience,like i did,so you can learn by yourself.
      Or listen to advices,wich is not really fun,but can be useful.
      : )
      You have both sides,you can do also both lol

      Hi,
      on the rear end ?
      It can be a bushing on a shock absorber end,it can be the bearing on the axle arm itself,but yo would see important camber on the wheel.
      The best would be to lift the wheel and shake all that with a lever to see where it comes from.

      The car passed inspection with zero problems.
      But the bushings were torn apart ,like you saw,so i bought new ones,and replaced them.
      Instead of messing around by removing the cables,disconnecting the brake lines ,i just dropped a bit the rear end and replaced the bushings "in situ"
      The difficulty was to press the new ones,as you saw,and without a press ,you do that by hand.
      Being able to freeze the bushings would have helped me a lot,they would have shrinked a bit,and been way easier to insert.
      The rest is pure manual labor,unless you need an explanation for a specific task ?

      Понятно что без зубила не обойтись,но от того как вы за пресуете сайленблок,так он и будет работать,( как долго).но всё равно приятно что есть люди у которых руки не из жопы и умеют делать сложную работу! Удачи вам

      Thank you
      The tool for pressing bushings wasn't really helpful,so i did the work by hand.
      It would have been useful to freeze the bushing,so its steel perimeter would have slided in more easily.
      But i' ve hesitated too much ,and thought i wouldn't have time to do it without the bushing to heat up very quickly.
      It was something like 35 °C this day...
