Honda Element rear lower arm and knuckle bushing removal and replacement.

Описание: So yeah, like the crawl says. I did this because of that one bushing that you can only get OEM by buying the entire rear trailing arm. I have a fleet of Elements and the price of that arm just keeps going up and up. Siberian Bushing makes these polyurethane bushings and I think we're on the 7th or 8th replacement. I thought it would be cool to show the process just in case you want to tackle this job. Especially the press. I like the press. Cheers.

P.S. I am open to critique, constructive criticism, fuck it, roast me. I want to do anything I can do to help anyone keep their Element road worthy. Just gotta get over being on camera and figure out the best format to get the point across in the most efficient way possible.

Update 12/8/22:

Time passed. Miles driven. So far we are getting between 20k to 40k miles out of these Siberian Bushings. Not good. The first one that goes is the one that connects the control arm to the subframe. The poly is separating from the metal core and the arm can move from stop to stop freely. Soon after, the upper control arm bushings followed by the knuckle. Ahh well... the package did say "Tested in Siberia". Didn't say passed. The one that seems to hold up is the one that was responsible for all of this so that's good. The rest, we're going back to OEM. So yeah, for informational purposes, the video still stands. Just don't use Siberian Bushings.
