supreme_style21 Posted September 15, 2003 Report Share Posted September 15, 2003 Like it says.. how do you install the rubber bushings in the rear transverse spring on a '94 GP? I need to have them installed by Thursday. A guy is interested in buying my car, so I need it fixed ASAP. So yeah, how do these go in? And where? How? I know nothing about it, obviously. Thanks in advance!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supreme_style21 Posted September 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Yeah thats the bushings I have.. I got them from work.. simply called rear transverse spring bushing. I just want a simple fix so I can sell the car. The dealership quoted me a price of $620 to have it fixed. :shock: I need something quick, simple, and inexpensive.

Guest RedCutlassSL Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 its its just the busings you need replacing, grab a 10 in c clamp, jack the rear of the car up, compress the springs with the clamp, then pound the new bushings in with a rubber hammer. do the other side, your done!!

Guest RedCutlassSL Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 compress it at the bottom of the spring, and at the top of the strut housing use wooden blocks on the spring!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
