Time for an overhaul of my 1.9 '98 BMW Z3 Individual

[Matt Barnes]

I would @Lee has probably done about a million of those so can tell you what’s best.

cheers mate......I've seen enough videos of people snapping the casing.... probably because they didn't use grease !!

Or cheat out like me and use a poly bush

To be honest I don't use any grease, I go in dry like a savage.

But I do clean both surfaces.

I use a really big Record vice and the bush does sometimes move/twist so I just release the pressure and adjust to press on the high spot.

cheers Lee..it's really weird it seems to stick at the same point each time. I can see the bush casing is not fouling, and when I release the vice it just falls out...I might have to go hard or go home...and have a Diff rear plate in my Ebay basket just in case
