I saw this on Ebay and picked up a set. Each kit contained 2 RUBBER bushings and a new shaft. There were no instructions with the kit. Just for grins I tried to put the bushing on the shaft and it was very tight. I wonder if you have to heat these like the Europarts front replacement ones. Seller had no instructions about these parts. Cost was $55 shipped.

Another curious minds just want to know:
Why replace the shaft? If the bushings are not totally worn out, where would the shaft wear? Or is it just the money thing. bushings and shaft for the cost fo bushings? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

The shafts don't wear out they rust out. In the Northeast they are all usually NFG when removed. That's just one of the reasons I started offering relacement shafts, with oem style mounting studs (not drilled and tapped for bolts). IMO, those shafts in the auction aren't true enough for Delrin bushings. |
