Fitting new bushes to a wishbone

Postby flea » Sun Dec 02, 2012 1:37 pm

This is all you need:

One length of M10 threaded bar.
two large washers with 11ml holes.
4 M10 nuts & one smaller washer with an 11ml hole.
Silicone lube or rubber grease.

You need to give them a bit of a push by hand but they will go into place.
Once you have them all in place like this.

You then pass the threaded bar through one side of the wishbone & fit one washer followed by the two nuts & then the other large washer.

Keep threading them on until the bar passes through the other side of the wishbone. Make sure the is about 3" sticking out of either side.

Tighten up both nuts so that one is to the inside left & the other to the inside right & it should look like this.

Now you grease or lube up the inserts & thread it over the bar.

Line up the insert with the aperture of the rubber & just tighten the nut.
