Making good progress on my upgrade to 5 bolt 911 parts, but... I also want to change the OEM rubber bushings on the rear trailing arms to delron. Any tips for getting the old rubber bushings out?

QUOTE(brant @ Nov 9 2024, 09:10 AM)  Mine are Mueller bearings from long ago But check smart and elephant for current offerings Got the rubber bushings out. They were "glued" to the shaft. I drilled them and a couple other things to facilitate removal. Problem w/ the delron bushings is that they are designed to be very tight and require some mods to keep them from pinching the shaft. |
