Hi folks,
Has anyone got some recommendations on a good bushing press and pull kit? Im about to tackle some of the bushings on my two cars (11' 320d BMW and an 09' Jag X type). I know my Dad's car and MIL also need a couple of bushings replaced too so figured now might be a smart time to invest in a kit. Ive seen a few cheap kits on Ebay but I was hoping someone might have some recommendations? I dont really want to be spending a lot of money, but equally a good set always pays for itself over the years.
Any recommendations would be great.
Thanks

There are loads of these on Ebay - I expect all from the same source. I bought a similar brand for bearing pull/push replacement & it was given a lot of pressure with 3ft breaker bar... I kept expecting it to fold up at any moment but it did a very good job in the end. I did use a lot of grease on the threads of the puller & I think that helped a lot.
The threaded bar/studding on these could easily be replaced by something from a local tool suppliers if needed.
Good luck!
