3.1. Removal of bush.
3.1.1. Undo the allen bolt (5) and remove it, plus the alignment pin (8)
and installation ring (9) from the tool.
3.1.2. Position the tool as in Fig.1. Loosen off the 14mm bolts and
adjust the hooks so that they securely grip onto the trailing arm
(Fig.2), re-tighten the bolts. Ensure that the face of the pusher
is centrally lined up with the bush.
3.1.3. Using a 24mm spanner, turn the force screw clockwise. The
pusher will start to push the bush from its housing.
3.1.4. Keep turning until the bush has been pushed all the way out
of the housing. Take care as the bush and assembly may fall
away when the bush is fully removed.
NOTE! If any undue resistance is felt, check that everything is
correctly aligned. The bush will only push out in one direction.
3.2. Installation of new bush.
3.2.1. Before installing a new bush, clean the inside of the housing
thoroughly.
3.2.2. Re-assemble the alignment pin (8), the installation ring (9) and
allen bolt (5) to the pusher and tighten the allen bolt.

manufacturer’s service instructions.
3.2.4. Fit the assembly over the bush and onto the housing as in Fig.3.
Loosen off the 14mm bolts and adjust the hooks so that they
securely grip onto the trailing arm, re-tighten the bolts. The
sighting windows in the sides of the unit allow for checks on the
bush to ensure that it is still in the correct position whilst
installing.
3.2.5. Double check to make sure that everything is aligned and that
the bush is sitting squarely against the housing.
3.2.6. Commence turning the force screw to start installing the bush
into the housing, check to make sure that the bush is still aligned
correctly.
3.2.7. Continue to install the bush until the alignment pin touches
the housing (fig.4), the bush is now fully installed.

parts to the storage case.
