Upright bushing
Putting Pfadt trailing arms on my 2010 SS. How is everyone getting the upright bushings out without buying the removal tool from Pfadt? I would buy the tool if I was replacing trailing arms for a living, but I have no intention of doing that.

I bought the tool because in the past when I took the "I will save money route" during the install (like a proper valve spring compressor) I was cursing myself for not buying it and with living in Canada, shipping takes forever...
Anyway the install tool from Pfadt works really well but you can make your own too...the link below is someone using a pulley... http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...8013:rolleyes:

Cut off the rubber edging, then used a 2 jaw gear puller. Pretty tight but was a breeze. Hardes part of the install. You can get a loaner from O Reilly or Autozone for free.
