Reza!

Nice job....

Can I ask where you got that clamp? Also, what is that attachment thing to allow you to press the bushing out?

reza

No attachments, just arbor and little cylinder pipe to hold against the arms.
you can use the sockets, I use 1" socket to press in.
Since I don't care of the old bushing, I press against it to push out...
I use wrench to push out, it took only about 5 minutes to press out.
Never stop once you got the pressing out movement going. Stopping will let it settle, and harder to start over...

Hey, what is the part number for these bushings. I was just getting to replacing mine and I realized that they were the wrong ones. I thought they were part number, 26-230, but that's not right because Mazda sent me 6 bushings for the toe links, which I don't need since I just installed the racing links from Rotary Extreme. Can somebody tell me if Mazda screwed up or this is really the wrong part number?

MakoDHardie

Nevermind, I found it again in Max's old writeup. Its 26-220. I was misinformed by another thread that had referred to them as parts numbered 26-230.
