3. Remove Stock Rubber Bushing
The stock rubber bushing has an outer & inner sleeve. You will need to re-use
both sleeves when using the Hotchkis bushing. The new bushing will replace the
rubber portion of the joint only. Remove the rubber by using a torch to burn the
rubber off while you scrape it out. Be careful not to damage the outer or inner
sleeve. The outer sleeve is pressed into the lower control arm body while the
inner sleeve slips over the stud pin. It is common to have the inner sleeve frozen
onto the pin. It’s ok if it is. Make sure the sleeves are clean before proceeding.
4. Install New Bushing
Apply the supplied silicone grease onto the inner and outer surfaces of the
Hotchkis Polyurethane bushing. It’s a good idea to also grease the outer and
inner sleeve surfaces.
Insert the bushing into the outer sleeve by itself. Then insert the pin and inner
sleeve into the bushing. The assembly is now complete.
