You gotta mark how far the bushes are pressed in before removal but a lot of the time you can get info on how far they should be pressed in anyway.

Bushes or replacement arms are relatively cheap compared to the labour to pull the cradle a second or third time. My upper arms have flogged bushes as well as my diff bushes so am going to do it all at once. Doing the lower control arms as well Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97114-fg-g6et-occasional-bang-from-the-left-rear/page/2/#findComment-1720837 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whole job took a little over 3 hours.. I just did it at work... having a hoist and a transmission jack makes things so much easier. All the rose joints and other bushes seem pretty good. Raised the rear 10mm cause it's to low. Did an alignment camber and caster, still a little bit of camber I just gave it 1.5mm toe in ... it was 17.3mm toe out its feeling like a new car Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/97114-fg-g6et-occasional-bang-from-the-left-rear/page/2/#findComment-1720865 Share on other sites More sharing options...
