radius & axle bushings
Need some info or tips on changing out the radius arm bushings and the axle pivot bushings. Figured on supporting the front frame itself and logic tells me that instead of letting the front wheels just hang I should maybe take the "load off" by slightly raising each wheel so I can break loose the bolts, change the bushings out, etc. My question is when I go to tighten everything up, especially with the axle pivot bushings, do I leave the slightly raised wheels where they are now? Or do I completely raise them up taking any kind of load off the bushing/bolt assembly and then tighten? I would think with them just up enough to take the initial weight off would be ok to tighten them then, but wanted to ask to be sure. Thanks!....Also, which ones do I change out first, tighten up? Or do I leave both sections loose and tighten up one or the other first? Thanks again.
