Good video. Thanks. I’ve done this job using similar tools. With a threaded rod, multiple washers, etc., I use a 1 1/4” pipe end cup (Home Depot) - with a hole drilled through the center of the cup through which the threaded rod passes - to receive the old bushing that is pushed/pulled through and a 32mm 12 point socket to push the old bushing through the arm hole. I had the end of the 32mm socket cut off so the length of the socket is a total length of 3/4”. Machine shop can cut it down if you can’t. The modified 32mm socket is perfect for pushing out the old bushing or pushing in a new one. The socket is super hard and durable to push out the old bushing ring. And, like this guy’s video, first pound out the center of the bushing entirely or partially pound out and cut it off. You have to do this part or the old bushing will be too long to fit into the 1 1/4” receiving cup when you push it out.
Thanks very much. I literally tried to do this yesterday... but I failed. Working on the driveway with the car jacked up. I might have to take the arm off the car. Hmm.... Good to see you do it though, I'll try to make a plan.
Absolutely dreading having to do both the upper and lower knuckle bushings on both sides in the rear on the wagon I just bought. Gonna be a nightmare I am debating just buying a knuckle with good bushings in it as it will probably be easier.
@@Matt-me4zz I ended up buying it and doing one side. Lower bushing the kit doesn't fit so I had to use a socket that was cut down to make it work. Unfortunately I only had time to do one side since I had to figure out how to make it work

Hello can you make a video when you change subframe brushing saab 9-5 with subframe on the car
When I have one with the same problem.
Is there a press that will fit in there and work that I can just buy?
You can buy the press tool at eBay (Saab 9-5 Rear Upper Lower Control Trailing Arm Ball Joint Removal Bush Tool 95).
Buy the tool it’s so much easier! It was the best $50 I’ve ever spent. Took me a half hour to change all 4.
