Iwannaturbo Member 32 Member For: 16y 2m 5d Gender: Male Posted 04/12/12 07:46 AM Share Posted 04/12/12 07:46 AM Hey guys I have done a handful of diff bushes on BA's, BF's, Territory's using a few different kits from Nolothane to superpro and superpro comfort. I have always had a bit of a hard time getting the two outer bushes in place. I have tried using threaded rod and washers, soft hammers, copper hamers etc etc. Just interested to see what methods others use and if there is an easier way etc Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/83084-outer-diff-bushes-methods/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
