I have a set of these. I took the front control arms off to install bj spacers and clean up rust. How do the control arm bushings go in? in the upper control arm, on a 92 reg cab 4x4, there is a cross piece between the 2 eyes of the control arm. this cross piece is what bolts to the truck. Anyway, the cross piece does not appear to come out. Do you just heat and dig the old rubber bushing (mine is quite worn, but doesn't appear to sag while not under load, under load who knows), grease up the sleeve and hammer the poly bushing in? This is what I am thinking about trying, but I am a little nervous about digging out the old bushing and ruining the whole thing.
Also if anyone has done an install of the bushings on the front end, and made a thread on it I would love a link. The pieces are in bags in the box broken up in to areas of the truck, but a detailed map of where exactly each piece goes would be awesome too.
I think I know where everything goes, but I dont want to mess anything up.
