Did you mark the position of the trailing arm bracket and bolts before removing it, so you could get the toe alignment as close as possible to what it was before the repair?

[@lefora87]

great video, what size socket did you use to push out the bushing?

[@465painkiller465]

I did this to one of my control arms today (before watching the vid) and man I struggled hard. That thing sat in there even tighter than the subframe bushings. Ended up drilling it and then cutting a grove. Not the best method. I’ll try the air hammer trick on the other one - that was a smart idea

[@dreww_e46]

Same process for both sides?
