A-arm bushings
Does anybody have a good method to press the bushings on the A-arms without a press. I got them in on one side after a lot of work in the vice. I will have to do a paint touch up now. I am worried that I will slip off and tear one of the bushings but I don't want to look for or pay for the tool in the shop manual.
BTW I got my sand blaster working today. Gonna have a lot of fun with it.

You might consider part number CO-R-78SB. It is just the coilovers and the offset TAs. Then send in your bearing assembly and let them rebuild them for $205 per side, assuming your spindles are OK. Rotors are comparatively cheap. Should save you over $700. Enough to upgrade to double adjustable with $400 change, Part No. CO-R-78SB-D.
Doing it this way will be your best bet. Myko, the link you posted to my site was for ALL NEW assemblies as to where you need your assemblies rebuilt. The all new assmeblies are pretty much up there for oversea's guys (b/c it's not worth it to send cores back to the US) and guys w/no budget who don't want to hassel with cores.
