The Sims 4 House Building | Micro Challenge | 4X4 |Tree Planter Camper
Hey Friends!! Hope you enjoy this new series!!! Welcome to Episode 3 of my new series, technically the second series on my channel; called the 'Micro Living' ...
I was watching some of your series the other day, and it inspired me to get
the new sims for old times sake :) (and you can seriously out-design me...
btw)
I have a 20 ton that I paid $160 for at Harbor Freight. The also have a 12
ton rig that should do the job. If you read the comments on my video 4
you'll read a post by a viewer that solved the poblem without a press. Look
for other YouTube videos on bushing removal no matter what the car. There
are some good ideas out there that I didn't think of. Thanks for posting.
+Megan Blank Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I think it would be necessary to have the front on jack stands because the whole assembly has to be disconnected. and reconnected which might require free movement of the wheels. Also it's nice to have room to work under there. I'm not saying it can't be done without jacking up the car but I never considered it.
Another thing I learned is if you don't know the history of your front
wheel bearings change those too. I drove the car with the replacement
urethane bushings with much happiness. When I took the drums off the first
time the bearing stayed on the axle. Now it was okay and went on fine. But
when I went ahead and replaced the front wheel bearings after the first
test drive it was even more tighter and performed beautifully. It became a
real sports car front end.
My control arm frame bushing was so beat up that I cut out all the rubber,
and put the arm in a vice. I hack sawed at 12 and 6 o clock tapped with a
chisel and the bushing race came out like butter. The stabilizer bushings I
burned up with my propane flame, and did the two sockets using a threadey
with bolts. They both came out quite easy Whew!
Yes, I saw a youtube video of a guy hacksawing nearly through the metal
sleeve from the inside and then using a chisel to collaspe it to the
inside. It was on a trans am control arm. I wish I had thought of that but
I own a press and felt I had to use it. Thanks for posting it should help
those without a press.
Thanks for your comment. I have the disk conversion on the front of my
Super Beetle so the bearings were in good shape but that sure is something
to check on.
