Hi,

Ive recently purchased SydneyKids group buy bushings (front and rear camber kits, and Front caster kit). And am in a bit of a pickle lol :no:

My usual mechanic that i use for installs changed his number so i cant get hold of him (names Ryan owns a Silver 31 Aus spec with import spec parts on it) anyway, so i need to install these bushings however i still live at home and have a 2 car garage with 3 cars so we are limited on space so doing it myself at my house is impossible really unless i wud be able to get it done in under a day which i dont think i wud as i wud take it slow. Anyway, im wondering if anyone on here, having done THIS KIT before, is willing to install them for me. I can assist but having not pulled the control arm apart before unless im instructed to exactly do things, then it would take me alot longer.

Obviously I would pay an amount which (whoever it may be) and i thought was fair. Id ratehr do it this way instead of taking it to a workshop as this way at least i can learn as i go along should the time come where i need to do it again or need to help someone in the same position.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers, David

I was looking at the bush kit a while back for my 33 from SK (I still need to get them) & he told me when I enquired that most of the bushes are a press fit.

You need a 10,000 pound press to be able to get the old bushes out & the new ones in so not really a back yard job unless you know someone with 1 of these.

Mate, call Ryan.

His number is now 0401 727 440

R31 silver, yeah, awesome lad hey, he's my mechanic too !! Did the first install at my home (sydneykid suspn) and this lot we are doing at his place down south. In fact, today's work got shifted to tomorrow. Doh. Lol, all is good: he became an uncle late last night! Congrats.

On my Stagea tomorrow we are fitting a highflowed Slide turbo, front and rear braided brake lines, front slotted rotors, new pads, auto oil cooler kit, oil filter, fuel filter, oil sump drain valve..... got an adjustable exhaust cam gear wheel and the front whiteline caster bushes but dont think we'll have time for these.

The whitelinefront castor kit needs a 10T press to push them on. I reckon I'll get these punched on when I have the 4wd Stagea wheel-aligned over xmas. The camber kits Im sure Ryan would have no trouble with.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
