Rebush job on RE 4.5"
Started this tonight. Pretty damn easy. Spend the 49 bucks and get a 1 ton arbor press from harbor freight. On the superflex joint, remember there is a worm screw locking it together. I fought that for a hour. If I'd have cleaned the arm first I would have seen it. Also with the press you don't need to freeze the bushings or apply soap, just square em up and BAM, tight like a virgin. I had 90k on my bushings so I am finding most are split. Probably kno k out the rear arms this weekend and the fronts next weekend. I want to see how it tightens back up. Let me know if you have any questions...
