Hey all

I am doing all the bushes in the front end this weekend including;

-Ball joints upper and lower
-Tie rod ends
-Inner control arm bushes
-Outer control arm bushes
-Strut bar to control arm bushes
-Strut bar to chassis bushes

There is no need to do the Sway Bar to chassis rubber or Sway Bar link rubber because I did them last weekend also inner steering rack ends. I will be getting my local to press Ball joints in and out $33 Dollars a side.

Question.
Is there any thing I have forgotten?
Anything I need to know from people experiences?
Anyone know what bushes if any have to be pressed in and out?

what are you going to replace them with?after pressing the ford ones out-nolathane ones are fitted by hand,you can buy the kit on ebay or a spares shop.

Ball joints need to be pressed in/out

yes,he was quoted 33 bucks a side.and so do some of the bushes.

Your new inner lower control arm bush is press fit.
I would recommend a Pedders rubber (with steel spacer) bush here.
If you buy the ball joints from pedders, they will press them into loose uprights for free.
I did the suspension on this car...

I got all the parts. I will never use pedders again my 300zx had to be replaced
