I'm wondering how many miles we can expect to get on the Bronze axle bushings in the ffpw. Has anybody come up with the answer to this?
I removed my inner bushings today. I lucked out and found a puller at work that took the bushing out in a matter of seconds. Basically it uses 3 fingers that expand once inside the bushing. Then the bushing is pulled out by using a threaded rod, a flat steel plate with a hole through it and a nut on the outside. The nut is turned on the threaded rod to do the pulling. Similar to Vaughn's #2 tip in the pif file. I'm finding out that the rebuild of the front knuckles is pretty easy. (for those who haven't done this yet)The hardest part is cleaning all the old grease off all the parts.
