Just had to do these bushes in my paj overall not a hard job if you have the right tools, took me just on a hour to do.
One tool that is needed is a http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/New-27pc-...sAAOSwMgdX1kFy
With this kit makes life so much easier, also can be done with cradle and diff still in th car.
1. Unbolt the tail shaft from the diff and tie up out of the way.
2. Unbolt and remove the 1" bar/rod that goes underneath the diff.
3. Unbolt sway bar mounts of the chassis and let it swing down and disconnect the diff breather.
4. Unbolt diff from cradle and slowly let drop down onto the swaybar, may need to tie up the front to stop in from rolling forwards and down.
5. With the kit up get the right sized adaptors and all thread bolt. One adaptor has to be bigger than the bush diameter so the bush will fit when being pushed out. Also lube the bearings and thread as everyone knows these bushes can be very tight. Take note were the arrows on the bush are located.
6. Once the bushes are out clean the bush locating holes in the cradle and pre lube with a bit of inox, kroil etc.
7. Line up arrows on new bush to the same position as the originals were and with the above kit slowly push them in.
8. Job done just need to bolt diff, tail shaft, swaybar and 1" rod back in and all done.
Cheers
