Front lower control arm bushing question
So...the stupid metal shell that the trashed bushings were in are also trashed. Because of this the bushings that came in the kit won't work. My question is which bushings don't need the shell to work and where can I find them?
Ps will these work without the shell? http://http://www.ebay.com/itm/IMC-3...c85151&vxp=mtr

If I read this correctly, the metal collar that needs to be cutout is also trashed? How did this happen? Regardless, if I read this right, you need to remove the inner liner anyway. Just make a slit in it with a saws all blade or something similar. The bushings will then go in with ease after that. I used some steel wool and a wire wheel in a drill to clean the inside of the control arm after the bushing collar was cut out. I used a huge pair of channel locks and went in with ease.
Forgive me folks if I read this wrong... Just trying to help!
Post a picture of what you are talking about. I tried the link like three times and a no go.
