The finger when it popped out was perfect. Mercedes is very similar and when you get those bushings out it's a rush of anger, adrenaline and happiness all at once.

You could try cutting a slit in the outer portion of the bushing with a Sawzall. This will relieve the tension and then it will come right out.

[@joemalone9380]

thought I was the only one with that idea.

[@stevenstone4330]

The next time you need to install bearings or bushings freeze the bearing/ bushings and heat with ever they go in(if possible) they should almost fall in. We us this technique in aviation all the time and it works well.

[@doziersimmons9574]

That is the cleanest car chassis I've seen lately. Even for Florida. 😊

[@TomChapman-wv9iq]

You could have used your saws all to cut part way through the outer sleeve to take some of the pressure off to make the press a bit easier

[@yhird]

👍👍👍

[@sdgelectronics]

Yeah, cut the sleeve and air hammer it out. It's much easier.

[@tedmitchell226]

Hi Ray, with a lot of shrink fit experience, I might suggest our method, we used eco-friendly anti-freeze that we would freeze to a slushy and we had special gloves to protect our hands from the cold and the other part we would use hot water close to boiling and use Deltronic oil sprayed into the fit. Since I doubt you'll be doing this method very often, I doubt you'd want to buy a special freezer that will freeze anti-freeze. I just wanted you to know their is a work around without resorting to liquid Nitrogen, which we also had on hand if needed but it seems you have it under control, good luck to you

[@rjb6327]

Ever think to use liquid nitrogen?

[@tedmitchell226]

@@rjb6327 I know other companies use it but we never did because our method always worked

[@jthonn]

freezing the bushing and also heating up the hole, would help, but all done quickly

[@sjfk1306]

Ray, a WAY easier way to remove old bushings is just a drill bit against the outer shell. The rotation of the bit rolls it around the outer shell and drills the bond away. Takes seconds. Then saw-zall or chisel for outer shell.

[@leonardhirtle3645]

One of the comments was to turn the cup around and use the larger flat surface to pull the bushing into place. Do not put the small part in the middle. Next time read the instructions.

[@bhagmeister]

The singular symbology displayed at bushings release was very much warranted and appreciated.

[@danwilliams2417]

Dry Ice for bushings works better, it is colder and will shrink them more. also warm the other part.

[@dotar9586]

Back in the 80's we pressed in a lot of 4 and 5 inch bronze bushings. They'd go in the freezer and you'd still have to pound them in. The first time we tried dry ice, the guy lined things up and proceeded to slide the bushing all the way through and onto the floor.

[@patrickgoodwin3085]

Good morning Ray and Lauren! Now THAT bearing was in there. WOW! I'm enjoying the longer videos as well as the shorter ones.

I love hearing about your cold weather Ray. Great content just about everything you do. Just for comparison sake here in Northwest Arkansas. We just got done having 123 hours below freezing with low temperatures of -10. Stay warm.

[@jimklyman9602]

It's 10 am and a cool 75 deg out side. Yeah 65 IS cold around here.

[@jonbiloff1264]

It's amazing to me to see how clean these southern cars are. If this car was a northern car that job would have sucked that much more.

[@tedwilliams8766]

should have put the bushing in the freezer while taking out the old one, use some dish soap on the new bushing and use a ratchet to pull it in, no power tools. sometimes you have to slow down to go fast. and the dish soap? i swear, people forget the things learned as kids. remember struggling to get those cool rubber grips on your bike handles so you use a little dish soap to lube them up and they went right on and never came off. that has helped me more times than i can think of.

[@michaelpressman7203]

Reminds me of changing out the front sight on a S&W Shield. It can be done with the right tools and determination 😮

[@Digidoc316]

Ray, a polar vortex means we are getting air right out of the arctic. I'm in Kentucky and we are looking at highs of 12 degrees and lows near zero! You Floridians need parkas at 40 degrees! But our summers have less humidity so we ain't mad at you. Big wrench on the front WITH the ratchet on the rear! All thread was spinning in the rear with the pneumatic on the front. GRAVITAS!

[@richardmaialetti6462]

Stick it in. Stick it all the way in. Way to go Ray!!!

[@bobnoblesjr.465]

Haha! I love that you flipped it the bird once it came out. Done that a few times myself. 😂

[@sausmajor]

Tip ray when the bushing is quarter to half way out. Get the air hammer with a chisel bit and use it on the od off the bushing driving it in and reducing the the od and it will fall out saves a whole off time trying to press it out the whole way

[@donrodgers283]

I would have been in there with the saws all a long time ago

Now that it's back above freezing here, well into the 30s, it is wonderful short sleeve weather.

PU bushings are used for tuned cars here alot as they do not wear as much as rubber , they are always pulled in from the centre as you did in the start

[@ronaldrussell5481]

Did all my bushings on my 4Runner that are like that, about 14 total and they are a real pain. I used heat and a similar tool on the front lower control arms and a drill and hacksaw on all the rears, it was a FUN project!

-13F and snowed in yesterday, 7F and snowed in today

Finally got a chance to watch this today and it so restored my faith that even the best of us run into those parts that are a beast to remove. I probably would have broke out the 4-6 foot cheater bar or saw by the point you reset.

[@jimmycheese3817]

I had the same problem with replacing a ball joint on my 2000 Explorer. The borrowed ball joint kit I got from Autozone was just a little too big. I worked on that for two days. After looking through several videos, I saw one that someone used a ball joint kit from Advance Auto. I went and borrowed that one. The ball joint went in within two minutes of using the "correct" size kit from Advance.

Ray you are good at your job. Just watched a KZbin video on how to use the bushing tool. There are all kinds on there. Don't listen to the na sayers on here.

[@jonathanstout3252]

When you were talking the bushing out it might help if you let the air compressor catch up before you use the air gun again when you were going back in could you have used a hone to clean out the bore then try to get the bushing in But i do learn a lot from your program keep it up Thanks

[@user-xv5zv3lx6p]

I believe the whole point of removing center of bushing is to collapse outer collar to aid in removal. . seems obvious bushing hole is tapered and needs to be installed from other side.

[@richarddouchkov9453]

Go to 51:27. See the drag marks at the top and not the sides. That indicates it has been dragging.

[@jack.w2307]

some dry ice on the bushing & heating the hole with a torch would prolly make it a lot easier

Up here in Ontario, Chinada, we were negative 25C or negative 6F. It's balmy today at 21F. Ch ch cheers.

[@jdscorpion5482]

You needed to flip it the flush flat part, it goes towards the bushing and the nut is inserted in the cut groove so it hold itself and it won't rotate allowing it to get inside and push the piece out. you will only need one wrench just to pull it out!

[@TEDodd]

He does that during the install and the slot is too wide.

[@cliff1551]

31:26 no Ray the pieces are inserts for the larger release tubes so the small threads fit and pull bush out mate

[@senffabrik4903]

[@jdesaavedra0432]

Us northern guys would have been taking the rubber out and resorted to cutting a slit in the outer ring with the torch.

[@jcadult101]

38:43 see that groove, the nut fits in the grove which prevents it from turning

[@Yardbird138]

Similar bushings are used on submarine components. Dry ice is always needed for these type.

Lubricate the bushing with dawn soap before inserting. Hendrickson Vantraax suspension bushings on a semi trailer are similar in design and need lube to pull it through the eye.

[@douglasmorrison9098]

Next one of those bushings you do the first thing you do after you cut that rubber out is take a cutter and cut that sleeve thats coming thru the frame and then it will just drop out. you should be able to cut it either with a torch or a recip saw. much easier that way but you do have to be very careful if you use the torch method. I learned te hard way also first time I replaced one of those. My boss came out and saw me struggling and told me how to get them out

[@davidcraven277]

If you took a mig welder and welded the inside of the steel in a continuous bead around the circumference it will shrink and come out easier

[@andyrbush]

I think I would have used the saw to slit the outer bushing then used a chisel to unstick it from the hole.

[@mrmustangman]

and you would have had that smooth inner surface all chewed up and F'ed up too.....

[@andyrbush]

@@mrmustangman Let me help you my inexperienced friend. And please mind your appalling language, children read this stuff. Stop cutting just before you break through. You didn't think of that did you. Then you get a chisel (metal shaft pointy at one end) and fold the ring in on itself at the cut. Even if you break through when sawing, you only leave a single cut mark on the support hole and that is no problem; the rest of the tube is untouched. Why do you think the entire inside of the tube gets damaged, did you try it and mess up? You are more likely to oversize the tube dragging the bush out of it when the two are rusted together.
