I've finally managed to remove my lower wishbones after about 2 days of cutting away at 3 bolts.
Taken the arms to my local garage and used their press to push in the mugen compliance bushes.
I am however a bit confused on how to remove the front most bushes on the lower wishbone????
There is no shoulder for the press to grip against when pushing it out. Do I have to burn it out, or cut the flange off to allow the press somewhere to grip?
Any advice would be appreciated. Will make a second attempt at garage tomorrow...hopefully with a working solution.

Fnarr'ing at my bushes and flanges!

 

I have managed to remove them recently with a small hydraulic press and a variety of different size sockets

 

I used a angle grinder to cut of the lip off, then pressed it out.

 

Mikefifth showed me a picture of a removed front bush only yesterday. I can't work out what it's got to do with fixing a car though.

 

You should be able to push them all out with a press.
Out of interest, when you put the compliance bush back in, did you line it up properly as they are directional?

 

/\ important.

I just pushed the rubber out then used an hammer and chisel remove the outer ring:

 

Thanks. Used an angle grinder to remove the lip edge. Will take back to garage tonight and use press to push it out.
As for the compliance bush, I saw the instructions regarding direction. Unfortunately I could not see any markings on the wishbone to which the arrows on the bush could be aligned. Looking at the picture, I took my best guess and aligned the arrow to point horizontal to the wishbone (Pointing towards the centre hole on the front bush). Is this correct?

 

I remove both lip edges with an angle grinder and then pressed out both halves in both directions, as it was impossible to remove both in only one direction... I firstly removed the inner pin, and then the outter case incl. the rubber from both sides...
Good luck! :-)
