Any how to on removing and reinstalling rubber upper A arm bushings?

Big arse Press

Not really any how to's because they do require a press and a few other tools. I know there are a few C Clamp style press that are avalible but have never seen one used.

Well I just got them out. I used a 1-1/2 x4 inch pipe nipple on flange side and on the other side used a 7/16 deep socket. I tightened this up in the vice untill the 7/16 socket went into the bushing about 1/2 inch. Then I switched to a 5/16 deep socket and put it back in the vice and pushed out the sleeve. Next I used a 31/32 socket and the 1-1/2 nipple and pushed the rubber bushing out. The first one took a hour to do. The second one took less than five min.

You took pics and are writing up a "How To" ,yes?

No I didn't even think about that. This is my sons Liberty and just trying to fix it up while he is home from school.

Good job by the way never would of thought about using a table top vise.

For the UCA's it's most likely better just to replace the whole UCA since the balljoint is non-serviceable or replaceable.For those that have JBA's UCA's a balljoint press will work just fine for those mount bushings.
