ok a little info first my jeep is a 1988 xj 5.5" rubicon express lift installed in sping of 2000. the factory rubber bushing are shot. i ordered new ones from RE using a 20 ton press pushed out the old bushings. Using a drum sander i just cleaned up the arms making sure their aren't any burrs using the hot plate that is use for heating bearings (this work was done at my buddys shop where the work on 500hp eletric motors)we heated the arms to 1200 than we froze the bushings with liquid nytrogen and still his press air over hydrolic would not push the bushings in.
So whats the trick i called RE and they clam they just press them in
