I just want to compliment your problem solving skills. This is the 3rd video I have watched in a row today of yours. They are helping me prepare to work on my '05 XC70.
Thank you for your advice. Today I did it on my Volvo V70 II from 2000 and I found a way without lowering the suspension because there is enough space next to the bushing. I made the tools by myself out from two tubes and welded Rondelles on it. You need only one screw. To press out the axle bushing, an outer sleeve is required that supports itself on the outside of the axle housing and can accommodate the bushing. Inside the small hole, a press-out sleeve is used, which has the same diameter as the bushing. To press in the new bushing from the outside, the sleeve that was previously used on the inside is needed to apply pressure. Additionally, a narrower receiving sleeve is required, which is inserted into the small hole, as the bushing protrudes about 5 mm inward.
You are a true man of genius. Your pronouns are he and him. Very nice work using what you have and buying only what you need. You deserve a lift. And so do I.
Could these be the cause of rear jumping to one side or the other when hitting a pothole or recessed manhole cover with one of the rear wheels? My xc70 jerks to one side when i hit a pothole. Im actually thinking of dropping the whole subframe and changing all the bushings, since theyre original from 2001.
Well, I can't say for sure but when you take the wheel off and have a look at how little space there is in front of that bushing you'll see that it's a real challenge. There simply isn't enough space to get a bushing and press tool in there unlike the XC90 where you get direct, unobstructed access.

I was going to upgrade all my bushings just to be safe, after seeing this, I'll pass on this one until absolutely necessary lmao
Thank you for the watch:)

same issue on my car, I will give it a try and change it soon
Where did you get the tool to press out ? Or did you build ? I need one asap dealer wants 1700$
Is there really no way to do it without dropping the subframe?

Sad too watch, total overkill...I changed too Powerflex, easy too press out without all your work. 😢
can you avoid dropping sub frame with the power flex?
have a nasty sway if you hit bumps from the rear end.
@@jacobtitt7774 any updates on this?
