    i tried it. thanks, it works. i used to ties and it worked but later used another zip. that other one i bought using the bushing is no good. doesn't last a year. thanks for sharing. UPDATE: My zip ties slipped off. the zip ties were still good. I used 2 zips this time and it worked. For how long, I don't know. going to redo mine and use your 3 zip ties. better then bushings.

      glad to help! it was my colleague car and he was going to salvage it or sell before i have found what was wrong. did you use the 3 zip scheme as well? one for pin, one for lug/arm and one to joint them?

      @@RUS_US I trimmed the one was around the pin, and tied it down with another tie. then used a third one to secure the tie around the pin. some how it worked. I was going to use the bushing kit but it doesn't last long. so junk. i'm keeping zip ties in my car, just in case it I have to replace it.

      @@RUS_US yours works better, more secure but mine works too by luck. it could but won't come loose. so I just leave it that way till it wears out. thanks. I think it will hold up longer. these chevy cars can be tough to fix.

      @@waimeaguyz9074 good ... i guess you keep some zip ties in car just in case :D ... yea design was a junk ... repair parts are junk. I had replaced a steering cable for my 1993 Yamaha jetski ... and it failed after 1 year of use when original was working since 1993. I have tried to put new transmission solenoid on my 2001 Chrysler town and country ... but all "new" solenoids did hard shifting and only salvage yard part did a smooth shifting. Sometimes it is smarter to get old used parts or real OEM original parts which costs 2 or 3 times higher

    • @RUS_US
      @RUS_US  3 роки тому

      there is no such video because it was improvisation and i just recorded a result. if you stop it and take a closer look you will get the idea:
      1) one zip tie goes on the pin neck
      2) one zip tie goes on the lug
      3) one zip ties connects the 1) and 2)
