Another full day under the car - axle bushes today

First attempt with the reciprocating saw - so hard and messy and damaging

So for the 2nd one chose the large socket and puller approach



I put the large socket on a breaker bar as 1. I had leverage to keep it straight and 2. There was a decent point to push into. As I tightened it I used the blow torch on the outer metal area to try and melt the adhesive

Eventually it pushed through





Then I tidied up with a drill mounted wire disc




Like the other bushes, this one is a perfect snug push fit



reassembly tomorrow then onto the front
