Had a shop quote me $400 for this so I went a bought a $70 HF puller while using this an a couple other videos for reference thanks for helping me save money
take some advice don't mess around and buy the nearly 400 dollar tool once you get to seal fifteen minutes later the seal and bushing are out and new ones in and no contamination.if your a mechanic time is the thing tools are an overhead that will pay back in future.tool kit comes with puller, installer,and 5 seals and 5 bushings the installer has arrows to align the bushing up in housing.don't forget to change the c/v assembly the shaft is more than likely scared up from the bushing grinding against it. asked around for what type fluid finally looked on dipstick mercon lv.
The tool is quick and easy, but not necessary to have, to do this job. If one is going to do a lot of these, then the tool would be a good investment. However, if it is a do-it-yourself person, then it can be done the way that I show.
I just ordered the seal and bushing mines a 2010 fusion. Mine has the notch in bushing too. Noticed in a few other peoples videos there bushing don’t have the notch ..
Not worried about what is coming from the bushing. it is miniscule. One can put a rag inside if one wants. Second, for some reason, the bushing likes to wear and cause a leak on this particular transmission. Why, I do not know.
@@thisisyourtransmission Ford used an inferior alloy for the driver-side axle bushing that was prone to greater wear when riding against the steel axle shaft. The driver side seal is also exposed to quite a bit of heat so as the metal expands, it can wear faster. Thus, overtime, the axle contact area with the bushing will wear faster, reducing the axle shaft diameter where it meets the bushing and scoring it enough to provide a well enough opportunity for it to leak. The solution is to replace not only the axle (in many cases depending on wear), but also to use the new, updated bushing that uses a hardened alloy with a special non-wear coating.
This bushing seems to no be for the vehicle, the ford sells the update bushing. Cost like $10, and it does not have any open ended notch like this one on you video. It also has a red Teflon coating inside to protect it. U also need to use loctite 648 on the bushing so it does not leak again. This is not the proper fix. Best to get OEM ford parts
Was this throwing like a P09 code? I think mine is leaking and the pressure control solenoid is causing a check engine light. Plus its been low on trans fluid and looks wet around the driver side axle. same year 2011 with about 180k
If it is a 2wd then the right side would have a bushing. However, I never had to change the right side before so I could not provide you a link to it. What is happening with the right side?
So this bushing is about 5mm wider than stock? I got this same problem but the kit i bought has a bushing that is a little bit wider. Does it still work?

You are very welcome.

Greetings from Calif . Excellent info thanks
Glad it was helpful!

Perhaps the bushing that they use is not the superior brand
good job and thank you for sharing
I’m definitely not grinding mine. I’ll try my bearing puller
If you do not have a puller, then this is an option.
All the aluminum shavings... not an option
You worried about little shaving in the diff from air hammering that busing out? What do you think wore that busing out?

🤣All those metal filings fell inside. Bravo. Use a bushing cutter next time, maybe you won't damage someone's gearbox again.
To mnie również przeraziło - hehe!
Not a bad ideal but your could of covered the whole some how

Never heard of a p09 code. However, if a transmission is low on fluid, pressure codes will set.
Does the right side has a bushing? If yes, can you please provide the link? I have a 2014 Ford Escape 1.6 Liter.

I keep having transmission fluid leaks from the seal. I replaced the axle and the seal three times.
Best how not to DIY.
So that’s what I’m missing a bearing and auto zone keep telling me they don’t have a bearing for my 2011 ford escape limited
AutoZone would not have this bushing
@@thisisyourtransmission that helped me a lot I’m tired of filling it up every morning or other morning I just ordered that piece
So this bushing is about 5mm wider than stock? I got this same problem but the kit i bought has a bushing that is a little bit wider. Does it still work?

Do I have to replace the axle too or just bushing and seal ?
If the bushing has not destroyed the axle, then you can just change the bushing and seal.
@@thisisyourtransmission thanks
🙄🤔🙄no way iam going to that shop no way
nope that is as bodgey as hell buy the right tools
you splattered metal shaving all inside...not good,now tyhe trans will be damaged in short order
What is short order to you? You do realize this was done 8 months ago?!
Good info
Use zzzzzzzzrrrrrrrro
