Hey guys,
My car has been sitting lower in the front passenger side lately and I also get a pull and a clunk sometimes while braking/steering. Upon inspection, I found the upper a-arm bushings to be toast. No rubber left at all on the back one and the front one is torn up. Seems pretty typical from what I've read on here.
So I bought 2 replacement rubber ones but I need a little insight on how to go about changing them. From what I've read, it seems they can be replaced without having to compress the spring and disconnect the shock. But I need a little more detail on what I have to do exactly. Can this be done all in the engine compartment? It seems pretty tight with the downpipe in the way.. and how do I get the old ones out?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
