Subframe Bush Replacement

[Vandella]

Hey All,

I've got hold of a replacement bush for the drivers side mount for the sub frame..

My question being 'Whats the process to replace this?'

What else needs to be removed/looked at when replacing this or is it a straight swap out?

Ta For any hints/tips or advice

[Coops]

just straight swap, but obviously with anything when your dismantling check all the other components that your near/removing for wear/play etc as well as a matter of course

Absolute arse ache to get it in properly though, ideally it wants pressing in and don't try with the captive nut & bolt as you'll break the captive nut long before you get it anywhere close to it being fitted properly.

You want some threaded bar, a socket, washers & nuts to press it in with, undo the rest of the subframe on that side of the car to drop it & give you enough room to get the socket etc in there
