Ollieh17 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 I was under the impression when removing the old bushes to cut out the rubber and metal inserts. However this leaves the powerflex bush loose... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JamesD89 Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Think there are 2 different sizes mate, mine were tight as after fitting Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 Instructions are included with the bushes which state to remove the bush only, and not the sleeve. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 Problem with being cheap and buying second hand Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted April 1, 2015 Share Posted April 1, 2015 We've all been there at some point mate. It might be easier and cheaper to buy a UK spec axle and start again, as I'm sure you've removed your ABS anyway? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ollieh17 Posted April 1, 2015 Author Share Posted April 1, 2015 Wallaceglanza is gonna cut the ends of the trailing arm off and send me them. I can then get the sleeves pressd out and hopefully pressed into my axle. Then a bit of weld to hold them in place Quote Link to post Share on other sites
