Keep up the good work

I partly "stretched" a thread on one of the bigger shafts on my kit. Still works, but reckon that heavy pressure would see it blow!  .

Hi JOE 90, i got the w/ bones back and was wonder n if i put them back before i do the sub frame bushes will it make life harder i just want to keep it it one piece i am just a novice doing this, by the way all the bushes that i replaced were good a waste of money and time had no knocks or bangs the rear was very solid i am going to have a talk with the guys in this very big concern when i go for a re test, will the s/frame bushes come out easier than the others i am doing only the 2 rear ones thanks a lot for your time

Doesn't make any difference if you refit the wishbones, they are not really in the way, and it gives you somewhere to support the hub. might be best just to loose fit for that purpose without the air bag, then do things properly once the subframe bushes are done? Don't know....

The subframe bushes don't really come out any easier, they are OK once you get them going. A little harder to get them back in. make sure you have them aligned correctly.

Oh, don't forget to drop the exhaust, and check all pipes connected to the subframe for strain as you lower it .

Well JOE 90 took exhaust off from manifold handy, dropped sub/frame all bits disconnected, , got a plate and steel tube made up its a must, got the 2 rear bushes out had to cut the lip off the top of the old bushes sorta handy, replaced both not so handy but no damage to equipment have the w/ bones suited and booted all ready to go back after i de/rust where i can while all bits are out happy enough so far the sub/frames are a lot easier and quicker than the w/bones to do, will fit all back when paint dries hope its as handy thanks to JOE 90s WIKI

Got the bits back on to day, only problem was one of the sub/frame bolts was tight on the last few turns had to put a thick washer in to take up the slack, wheels on tomorrow and hope the air bags dont act up.
