The 116's idler arm needs new bushings - thanks to some gorilla in an alignment shop who overtightened the nut.
It now moans and groans on turns.
I bought the repair kit and have been procrastinating - busy, too cold, now too hot, etc. but am creeping up on doing it.
I'd like to know, FROM THOSE WHO HAVE DONE ONE of these bushing replacements how long I should expect it will take and if there are any "tricks" to do it.
It looks like the new bushings need to be pressed into the bracket tube using a threaded rod or long bolt and lots of lubriplate. Right or wrong?
Thanks for sharing your experience and Happy July 4th!
Tom, maybe soon under the car.
