rear suspension rod radius arm bearings

Post by gxantia »

Thanks for the patience, this is turning into an epic job. I have the radius off, even got the blasted pin out, but now the rod has come apart. I think it is a push fit, but not sure. Does the fat end fit into the cup?

The job should carry a health warning... :rofl2: If you haven't removed the ram from the car then you still have the trial of getting the gaiter clip back on, plus refitting the vent pipes, and getting the pin back in! All good fun still to come :lol:

if the push rod has come out of the gator, it will be far easier to refit it with the gator removed from the ram, this way you can feed the cup of the push rod in from the large opening of the gator, as its one heck of a game trying the feed it in from the small end, and you risk tearing the edge of the small end using the later approach
