1. Assemble the dismantling tools as in Fig.1. Thread the Adaptor (A) onto the short threaded end of
the bolt (6) with the ridged side facing forwards. Pass the bolt through the bush from the rear and
then position the large Adaptor (2) over the bolt, fitting it against the housing with the cut-out
facing inwards and the small recess fitted over the rubber locator on the bush. Thread the nut (5)
onto the bolt and wind it up to the adaptor. Double check to make sure that everything is aligned.
2. Using a 24mm spanner to turn the nut clockwise. The extractor will start to extract the bush
through the housing (Fig.1).
3. Keep turning until the bush has been extracted all the way out of the housing. Take care as the
bush and assembly will fall away when the bush is fully removed.
NOTE: If any undue resistance is felt, remove the assembly and check everything is correctly
aligned. The bush will only push out in one direction.
INSTALLING NEW BUSH
1. Before installing a new bush, clean the inside of the housing.
2. Assemble the installation tools on the housing as in Fig.2 and Fig.3. Adaptor (4) is threaded onto
the short threaded end of the bolt (6) (ridged side facing inwards). Pass the bolt through the
housing from the rear and then through the bush and then position the Adaptor (3) over the bolt,
fitting it against the bush. To facilitate correct positioning of the bush, the installation adaptor (3)
has 2 recesses that align with the face of the new bush (Fig.2). The bush should then be aligned
in the housing so that the rubber locator on the bush is facing directly downwards. Thread the nut
(5) onto the bolt and wind it up to the adaptor. Double check to make sure that everything is
aligned and that the bush is sitting squarely against the housing.
3. Using a 24mm spanner, turn the nut clockwise. The bush will start to be pushed into the housing.
NOTE: If any undue resistance is felt, remove the assembly and check that everything is correctly
aligned.
4. Continue to turn the nut to install the bush, when the bush reaches the housing, resistance will be
felt and the bush is fully installed (Fig.4).
5. Disassemble the tool, clean and lubricate before returning the parts to the storage case.
6. Re-fit the wish-bone as per the vehicle manufacturer’s service instructions or a proprietary
manual.
