In this third segment of the DIY Porsche 911 suspension overhaul I demonstrate how to install new control arm bushings using a threaded rod instead of a large shop press!

Hey, everyone! Thank you for watching! Something I've learned since posting this video is that WD40 may not be the best lubricant for this application. The petroleum distillates in WD40 aren't very friendly to rubber. A better alternative would be dish soap or silicone spray. Thanks!
I just did mine. I did the first one using a a Harbor Freight vise clamp, similar method in the Elephant Racing video. His clamp looks a little sturdier. I did the second one with a threaded rod. The threaded rod is definitely easier.
Did you have to remove a cap to get the all thread thru the control arm? Mine seems to have a plug
Any idea how you can remove monoblock bearing off from 986 trailing arm?
Great channel
Great video Benny. I've never seen that method of bushing installation.
