Grim.Badger 15 Posted July 14, 2009 Right, well I've managed to get the small poly wishbone bush in, but I can't squish the big one enough to get it to fit. Any ideas? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liquid_106 97 1 Cars Posted July 14, 2009 Stick them in hot water to make them a little more pliable and then add plenty of copper/lithium grease to help them in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liquid_106 97 1 Cars Posted July 14, 2009 (edited) Just checking (because I did it ), have you removed the outer metal sleeve from the original bush? If not, it makes it just that little bit too small to get the new bush in, no matter what you use! Edited July 14, 2009 by Liquid_106 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trialster 0 Posted July 14, 2009 my powerflex ones were a biatch to fit. i managed to get it in with a combination of copperslip and a crow bar to ease it into the subframe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
