Brett6485 Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 Why can't I find a shop in San Diego to do this for me? I mean the arms are off and completely disasimbled, it wont take much if any effort to pop them out, new bearings, and then pop it back in. But I have been bounced around shops for three days now. There has to be a shop around here that will do it. Or does anyone have any tips on how to do it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMortensen Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 There are quite a few posts about that subject here, all you need to do is search for them. The Atlantic Z Car Club has a great tech info section which has step by step write ups on most general maintenance procedures. Atlantic Z Car Club: http://www.atlanticz.ca/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=69 Whenever you start a new project, be it bushings or whatever, check there first. Here is the stub axle page: http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/rearwheelbearings/index.html You might also check the spindle pin info on that site if you're doing the rear control arm bushings.

Brett6485 Posted October 10, 2006 Author Share Posted October 10, 2006 Thanx, some good info on that site. I'm hopping I can find a local shop to do it for me though. I am in the middle of midterms right now so time is something I don't have alot of. Not to mention I dont really have the tools to do it my self. But if I have to get creative I guess I will.

dsommer Posted October 10, 2006 Share Posted October 10, 2006 I had to have a machine shop remove mine for me, they had to put a torch to it, only one, the other side came off fine. Spindle pins, swing by a 4X4 shop, rock crawler shop whatever they usually have the BIG presses for pushing these #$%%#%$#$%$#&*&^!!!!! out.
