B**tard control arm bush

[k130]

Hi all

Any tips on removing the control arm bushes? Mine are siezed solid...

[320Touring]

take it you mean the round one that the wishbone/control arm slides into at the rear of the arm?Held on by 2 bolts into bottom of wheelarch?

if so, just cut out the rubber,

then hacksaw through the metal surround and tap it out with a cold chizel and a hammer

take care not to damage the carrier,

then clean up the carrier, and pop the new one in

failing that, anyplace witha 25 tonne press should be able to help

Cheers, I tried the puller but gave up.

Time for the powerdrill I think!
