Anti Roll Bar Bushes

[Big Bob]

Hi guys has any one fitted these i have remover the old inner LH bush and replaced it with the new one but cant get the f**king nut and bolt back in as the holes are miles off any one got any suggestions ?

lol use a g-clamp to hold the joint together whilst you bolt it up

 

[Big Bob]

ill have to get one then ive tried it with the mole grips but cant get it tight enough

 

[ben_p]

replacing with standards?

Stick something soft between a jack and the roll bar and jack until theres some thread.

cheers fred way to shatter my confidence ive tried like f**k and with no luck will try a g clamp though then if no good ill put the old ones back in and give it up as a bad idea.

i use a 3ft lever bar on them, or some big jaws, mole grips can work also

 

[Big Bob]

i cant seem to crush it enough to get the bolt back in the slot with the mole grips and theres not a lot of room under there neither as youll know.
just frustrating when things dont go well.

if you undo the outer bushes you'll find it easier, but then they're a t**t to do back up also

outer LH side is out as i have the wishbone off at the mo and its still a b**ch.
