I need some help. I got a Front dif crosmember bushing kit from cbetts a while back and finely able to install it today. I don't have any instructions. I think this is based off speedy's original fix but I cant find that thread anywhere. I got the rubber out of the crosmember. Does the mettle part the rubber was in need to come out too? Is it pressed in and just need a BFH to remove it? The bushing is way to big to fit in the hole. I'm supposed to be going out of town tomorrow and need to be able to at least get it drive able so while I appreciate the "just get the XYZ kit" comments it isn't an option right now.

Thanks, The rancho kit has a different crosmember right? I think I came up with a fix that will get me through the weekend.

In response to one part of the original question, yes the metal sleeve does have to come out. Speedy's thread is not on this forum but HXC just in case you were looking in the wrong place.

Thanks, I knew it predated this forum but hadn't tried HXC. It's obviously diferent from what I have.
