For the ones who trying to find out how to push it on... I used a deepwell 13mm socket with a extension (no ratchet) and it fit perfectly at the edges of the bushing and then i just applied pressure and pushed it in.

I cannot thank you enough for this video! I had been trying to get the right kit for my 2004 F150, I had Advanced Auto special order me the "right size" when i picked it up i spent an hour trying to get it in, I don't have a lift and was on my back in the muddy driveway trying and trying. I returned the part to get the other one they recommended and it STILL wouldn't fit, I was defeated and loss any desire to continue trying, I couldn't even find the right size online for the specific year. I went on a whim and took back the 2nd set and got the one you recommended and BAM it snapped right in!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!! Literally a 1 minute fix! You sir, are the man and my hero!!!!

Well depending on the vehicle there is a possibility that there is an interlink between the ignition and the shifter. the shifter must be fully engaged in to park before the key can come out of the ignition. also try to jiggle the steering wheel back and forth while trying to turn the key in the off position.

Sorry I'm a handyman and not a mechanic by trade and I've never even heard of that car so unfortunately I can't help you on that. What I would say is to watch my video closely all the way through then look at your linkage and see if it looks similar as far as ball joint and cup configuration maybe even measure it. The repair kit is cheap and might be worth a try if it looks similar. Also I have never heard of "bushingfix".

Hey, I have a 2005 Pontiac G6 with over 200k in miles and the bushing keeps wearing out. Like every 6-8 momths. The kit doesn't cost a lot but I'm wondering if it could be a bigger issue or if it's just general wear and tear? Any input?
@joeyfix-it19162 жыл бұрын
That seems like excessive wear to me. I would try to put some type of lubricant in there maybe a grease of some sort. If your transmission is hard to shift into gears you could have a bigger issue possibly within the transmission. The next time you have to replace them I would leave the one disconnected off the transmission and go through the gears on the shifter and see that it and the cable are operating smoothly without any drag from the transmission. Definitely going to need some process of elimination here....

I did say in the video step-by-step what I did and how it works for me so I would assume you should be able to achieve the same result.

Unfortunately that's easier said than done when you're laying on your back under a vehicle trying to hold a camera and record. It requires two hands to get the job done; one to hold the pliers and one to hold the parts that you are trying to assemble. I thought I explained the procedure pretty well on my video and all of the positive comments that I have received would appear to agree. Obviously ; we are all different and we all have different skills and different levels of experience. It sounds like you're not confident in your comprehension of my explanation on how to do the repair. If that's the case I would suggest seeking a professional or at the very least someone that is capable of assisting you in completing this task.
