Trying it this weekend...
...using the Baylor method that I think I saw here in a search. I'll be using the 1/2" threaded rod and using the weight of the vehicle to drive out the old bushings. Can someone confirm that the attached setup is correct?
I don't understand if the car underbody is supposed to bear against the big fender washer at the top, the top of the 1/2" rod, or something else. I also don't get why the method calls for leaving a half-inch of exposed thread above the top washer. Seems like I'd poke a hole in the car if I loaded it onto just the 1/2" rod.
Do I need a block of wood between the top of the pressing tool and the underbody of the car?
Thanks!
Rob
