"Help with Radius Arm bushes"

[nissannewby]

As for your steering wheel bushes prob wont solve this you will need to get an adjustable steering arm. Rubber bushes are the go. As for your springs if you call someone like suspension stuff and tell them what you have told us they will be able to supply you with the correct springs for your application.

Just chock the wheels in front and behind so the diff stays in position. It makes it easy to put back in as it's pretty much still lined up. You can remove and replace radius arms on the side of the road if you wanted.

I personally jacked car up and placed chassis on stands, wheels still slightly on ground to help remove preload.
This way springs are less likely to roll diff out.
Chock all 4 wheels, total of 8 chocks, 2 per wheel
Select low range and 1st if manual box .
Ensure in park if auto and low range
Engage front hubs.
this will also help to lock diff in place for both arms to come off at same time.
Had no problems doing it this way both arms at same time myself.
A good sized screwdriver helps as a guide-leaver for realignment of bolts.

Recon doing 1 at a time is a slight problem.
as you have to remove at least 1 bolt from other arm to allow diff to roll for new angle anyway.

poly are fine if you do alot of driving & touring, it you lift it & play alot I would go rubber, I fitted perfirated rubber bushes for the flex on both of mine ( tourer & toy), again it is personal, I only fit poly on my lowered cars for precise handling as I want the car to go where I point it when I point it,

Pretty easy to knock up a jig to help line them up too. Couple of old bolts/pieces of bar welded to some scrap RHS with the correct spacing. you'll be glad you made it if you get home and realize they've been pressed in incorrect.
