How to Replace VW Vanagon Radius Arm or Radius Rod Bushings

[@TheMoodyArtistChannel]

You are a natural comedian. On, no it won't squish!

[@GarageKing]

Thanks !!!!

[@TheMoodyArtistChannel]

The sounds of tools is its own ASMR. So happy it is no longer gold!

Ya, the paint job is pretty flashy now, I get so many thumbs up when I drive that thing !!!

[@michaelraleigh-co7og]

Very nicely done. I'm looking forward to saving mega money and bonding with my Vanagon. Thank you

[@GarageKing]

Thank you for the comment good Sir, and there is more to come !! I love my Vanagon and have done quite a bit of work to it. I weave Vanagon vids in with the other content to keep it varied. There are quite a few vids already in the Vangon playlist :)

Great video. I am about to spend a lot of money and time and your content is making it less daunting with every view. Thank you!

[@GarageKing]

Appreciate the comment, and hope you are having a great weekend

[@richindex96]

Awesome video! Everything I needed and wanting information wise without and jibber jabber! Also nice to see it's a simple enough job on a van as crusty and dusty as mine 😂😉

[@GarageKing]

Thank you for the great comment, and we have to keep these vans on the road. I love mine !!!

[@kalimethod]

Never saw this one. Great!! Will try to tackle this job one day

[@GarageKing]

This is a good one to do, and when these bushings are worn, your van will wonder, doing them really tightened up my steering and the van does not wonder anymore. Mine were pretty bad as you saw in the video. Thanks for the comment :)

[@montanaharkin]

Thanks for this. Need to do this job soon

[@GarageKing]

Thanks for the comment, I got a few more Vanagon suspension ones coming out. I just have to find time to edit and post them !!

[@montanaharkin]

@@GarageKing I’m gonna start the on the pb blaster soaking now 😂

[@GarageKing]

​@@montanaharkin That never hurts !!!! The radius arm bushings are probably one of the most overlooked things, and you know they really affect your handling. After I did mine I noticed right away my van did not sway back and forth on the highway !!

Great video!!. Short and precise. What was the manual you did mention? Many thanks. Suscribed😉

[@GarageKing]

I reference the Bently manual, if thats what you were referring to. Not as good as the VW Service manual, but I can't find one of those.

Noticed that you have bigger tires 16" (?) and the spare in the clamshell. Are you running with the old 14 incher as the spare or have you modified the clamshell to accomodate a bigger tire? Thanks for the channel. High production value!

[@GarageKing]

Hey There, the wheels are actually 17", they are old Mercedes Benz tires from the late 90's early 2000's. They are forged, and I think they came of an AMG model. I painted them silver. The clamshell still holds the factory 14" and if I ever get a flat I would be sure to arrange the wheels so the spare would ALWAYS be on the front, as it wouldn't matter much as they are independent. The rear ones go into the trans so you want them turning at the same speed. Thanks for the comment and more VW content coming your way soon !!!

Thanks, and appreciated!!

Petty.. and unimportant really.. but I’m a cameraman and just had to mention this. To “pan” is to pivot the camera across the horizontal plane. Think PANaramic. To pivot vertically is To ”tilt” and to move camera closer is to “zoom”. Ted talk over 😂 Great video though, super useful! Thank you!

[@GarageKing]

Thank you and appreciate the comment, I feel I'm still pretty amateur with the camera, and also it is very difficult (time consuming) to film these types of videos. I do appreciate the comment, thanks !! I do my best !!!
