They are part of the assembly and should not be removed. Fit genuine bushes only NOT poly bushes.

pete12345 · May 13, 2020

Thanks chaps no wonder I can't find them and already got genuine son order then to find someone with a big enough press to get them in

pete12345 · May 14, 2020

Any good tips for getting the new bushes in they look to big do I need to file a small edge on them to start them off

RangeRoller dt · May 14, 2020

Stick them in the freezer for few days and use jubilee clips to squeeze them in one saint on here did.

pete12345 · May 14, 2020

A bit of fairy liquid can help. If using a press then do it slowly with a little rest every so often.

pete12345 · May 15, 2020

I'm going to take them to a local garage so hopefully he will no the tricks of the trade

pete12345 · May 16, 2020

That is the correct part number and the bloke at the garage is a muppet. Special tool needed to compress bush as it it being pressed in. What a bloody plonker he is.

pete12345 · May 16, 2020

Would a large jubilee clip do the job as it goes in or do I need that special tool cheers

Yes. The O/D of the bush will be around 61.5 mm the I/D of the radius arm hole is 60mm. Clean it up and apply some grease. Put jubilee clip on about 3 mm from end of bush and tighten until bush enters hole once engaged in press remove clip and press in.
