Installation - Lower Suspension Arm Bushing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Jeep Liberty. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

NOTE: Extreme pressure lubrication must be used on the threaded portions of the tool. This will increase the longevity of the tool and insure proper operation during the removal and installation process.

Install the new lower suspension arm bushings into the lower suspension arm using tools 8862-3 (driver), 8862-4 (receiver), 8862-5 (spacer) and the bearing with the threaded rod 8839 making sure to properly orient the bushing in the suspension arm. See Fig 1.
