Help: Need a press for a couple bushings...
 
I have spare bushes to clear out and press new offsets into... Anybody got access to a press?

Yeah... what kind of bushings? Our press is kinda old, setup wise, so it kinda depends on what you're pressing as to if I can do it or not...

i've heard weed-whackers are good for this. :)

Anybody had an ALK or stock bushing in their hand recently, or just know? I assume the taper on the inner sleeve is narrower on the end where the nut goes from the stud on the control arm, or rear facing...

Clean your bracket... there are arrows on them I think.

Nope. and the rubber inserts have the same PN on each. Just going to have to take my car apart and look which I was going to have to do anyway to put the replacements on.

Crap, it must be the ALK brackets that are labeled.
