I’ve just done this job on 2010 Fiesta and put a long socket extension bar through centre of old bushes - drilled some rubber while levering my long bar and old bushes came out very easy!!!

Nice video but I don't think its a good idea to refit the new bushing by drawing it in by the core - you could end up damaging the new bushing. The best approach is to use a cup that is the same size as the outer casing and draw it in that way. There is a bit of a profile on the circumference but doesn't interfere too much with the installation.

Nicevone Mark glad to have you back

Good job done

Iv done a few of these nows an hours job once you know what your doing I use a reciprocating saw to cut them out then put poly's in no special tool required

I've seen some mechanics on certain cars having to burn those bushes out with a blow torch.

What size socket and spanner did you use on the re fit tool

Don't forget the threaded bar doesn't last very long. You will be replacing it every couple of bushes! Next time just stick poly bushes in.

Not supposed to grease bushings for installation - they are supposed to be a tight friction fit and using grease could cause them to rotate. Best to use a bit of washing-up liquid as that still helps with installation but will will dry off.

you learn somethink new every day????.
