    I think your big pull plate is backwards. It has the groove for the nut. Having it backwards makes the plate diameter grow when tightening bends it. Double washers act as a thrust bearing and belong to the cup side. They should be lubed aswell as thread.

    Hi ray and wife unit, here in England it’s -10 with a covering of snow in parts. My thoughts on the long videos is the longer the better, as you’ve always got the option to pause and go back later if it gets a bit long. But the longer videos give a chance to cover more in depth content instead of short videos just covering oil changes etc. I’m sure others will let me know why I’m wrong but it’s my opinion. Love what you do and each day is like Christmas when I turn on and there’s a new video 😀😀😀👍👍

    Should have spuun the cup around to pull from the interior center, instead of the bushing, to avoid damaging the bushing. The cup would sit flat on the crossmember flanges to facilitate ingress of said component. Then use larger flat piece to put pressure on the outer edges said bushing.

  • @sjfk1306

    Ray, a WAY easier way to remove old bushings is just a drill bit against the outer shell. The rotation of the bit rolls it around the outer shell and drills the bond away. Takes seconds. Then saw-zall or chisel for outer shell.

      ⁠@@simonmitchell7439​​⁠​⁠@TEDodd Video evidence above shows otherwise…The flat side without cutout for nut literally has a bevelled edge to stop edge of tool from getting caught on inside diameter of subframe housing; using it the way shown puts pressure on bushing unevenly and also, causes multiple points of tool to get caught to put it on an incorrect angle under pressure.

    • @simonmitchell7439

    When pulling a bushing sleeve with a threaded rod using a impact only loads the rod like a spring. A large breaker bar will let you to apply more more clamping force on the rod thus allowing you to turn the nut on the cup side half a turn or a full turn then wack the driving plate with a hammer turn nut on cup and repeat. The lose of clamping force on a rod with an impact is like using a long extension on your impact wrench. Torque test channel did an experiment with torque loss due to extensions and a threaded rod acts the same way. Former machine shop employee in my teens and 20s

    In the machine shop, to press fit something like sleeve or bushing
    We would use Dry Ice just pack the part into a cooler with dry ice on it until its really cold- you also heat up the hole your going to press it into, at that point depending on the press fit your doing the part would just fall into the hole.
    Cold expands, heat contracts do both to get twice as much space.
    When both parts come to room tempt they won't come apart without a lot of force.
    When you heat up a bolt to remove it your actually making the hole larger, you can use hot and cold to remove something too.

Since I doubt you'll be doing this method very often, I doubt you'd want to buy a special freezer that will freeze anti-freeze.

    First, let me say I have enjoyed your videos for a long time. I haven’t finished watching this video and right now you’re just starting to install the bushing. If you don’t end up doing it, I would recommend reversing that cup in order to have enough distance. With all the fancy tools you have I’m surprised you do not have a set of these bushing plates and cups. I bought a set for about $80 in order to do the press and wheelbearings on a Honda pilot. It works great. Thanks and keep up the entertainment!

  • @crli4353
    @crli4353 6 місяців тому +3

    This is perfect example of why it's important to choose a contractor base on skill and knowledge and not just because you like him or because he has a successful channel. Ray is obviously qualified to do "most" repairs on many vehicles, but this video demonstrated that this job was not one of them. This was perhaps the failure of the customer if he neglected to ask is if Ray had performed this particular operation previously. It was also a failure on Rays part to GUESS his way through the project. As a business owner myself, I can tell you there is value in telling a customer, "ive never done this and I think you should find someone who has." This prevents the contractor from losing money on a job due to error and it tells the customer that the contractor knows his limits. That said, *IF* the bushing came with instructions on how to use it properly and Ray chose not to read them, then that would speak volumes. Often times however, these aftermarket items will not come with instructions, so we cant assume.

    Oh I’m so happy to see someone else have my sort of experience with a rod and cup style bushing puller. And Ray doesn’t have rust to deal with.
    Over here, step one would be clean the exposed part with emery paper, ideally after pulling the bushing out a little the opposite way first.
    Even then, I think the time saving method would still be to take out the frame and bring it to the press. The threaded rod is never strong enough for the extraction and, in this case, having to use a smaller diameter rod for insertion seems like a recipe for failure.
    Using a press, the frozen bushing doesn’t have time to return to room temperature before it’s fully home, so the operation goes smoothly and far less frustratingly.
    Thankfully, I’ve never done one of these, so not sur how much extra work is involved in getting the frame out, but it turns the actual bushing replacement into a 10 minute breeze, so quite possibly still a time saving technique.
    Man oh man, this global warming is a b1tch. Even cold in Florida, now. It’s been over a decade since we escaped with no snow, here in Ireland. Time was when snow was a rarity and we’d be rushing out to play with it, if we were lucky enough to get any. It was a once every 3 or 4 years occurrence, back then. Now that we’ve warmed up so much, it’s every year and we tend not to get summery weather in the middle of the year, either. Cold and wet is the norm, now. I’d love to bring the experts over here and make them live through a typical year, then explain how, if they’re telling the truth about all this warming, we’re getting potato blight and constant cold all summer, then freezing conditions every winter. 2023 was supposed to be the warmest on record, here. But if you blinked at the wrong time, you would have missed the warm period. Ask anyone who lives and works on the land.
    The upshot of all this is we now have salt on our roads every year, often for long periods of time, so our rust problems are returning to 1970s magnitude. On an Irish car, that bushing would have been rust welded into place. Getting it out , under the car like that, would probably have been impossible without damage to the frame. As for getting the new one in, particularly a rubbery one, with no outer sleeve to push on, I suspect that would be a similar nightmare with the added joy of rusty dandruff falling in your eyes.
    Remind me… why do I want to get back to work?

    If the mount is liquid filled it won't shrink, it will expand instead. But it depends on what type of fluid it's filled with determines the expansion.
    I wish I was there rainman because there's a trick I could show you how to take that bushing out in minutes. Alfa Romeo used the same type of bushings in their engine mounts in the mid 80's. We used to cut a relief in the outer metal bushing housing, it will release the tension because of expansion from rusting.

    Seeing people commenting about how the stock stuff was fine or better is BS. That rear bushing was shot to the point all the dampening fluid in it was gone. They also break down after years and cause your diff to clunk into the subframe. I have the same bushings and layout of them on my 240sx. I replaced mine as well.
    The one thing I did yell at the screen was for him to just cut that inner bushing race with a Sawzall. That's how I got mine out without ANY special tools and way less struggle.
    My install was easier though because I had to go with solid aluminum bushings because I went with a 370z LSD rear differential.
