Upper control arm bushings are a PITA!!!!!!

Use a socket to tap em out? I haven't looked at em so I have no idea, I would just take the brake line off, it only takes about 15 seconds to do that, then a few minutes later to bleed em.

Socket won't work. Removes from the inside out and there is a shaft (folcrum pin) in the center. Section 3c of the manual shows it.

Also, I am at a point of no return...I can not put it back as was. The inners of the current bushing pretty much disintegrated during the tear down.

Well, the sun is setting so I am calling it quites for the night. In the AM I will disconnect the brake lines, completely remove the control arm and have better access with the BFH.

I'm guessing that you might have to have them pressed out/in.

Pressed...BFH...same thing!
