Not too bad from Russia

I noticed that they sell their stuff on Ebay and Amazon (just search by the company name to find their store). It might be possible to get all the shipping info in english if you order from one of those two sites... problem is you need to use their site to write down the PN that you need then search for it the store if you want to go that way.... just another option!

Mine shipped out 6 days ago

I am working on a customers H3 and finished the tear down to get to the front lower control arm bushings. My question is did you guys have to drop the front diff in order to push them back in using the factory spec pusher/puller tool?

Sort of... Unbolt all three bolts. The two one each side of the front diff and the one bolt that secures the front diff to the cross member. Once you do that you'll have the room you need to get the bushings removed. If you have both sides of the wheel assembly broke down you might as well drop the diff to give you all that room to work.

It better be worth all this work for this guy... this is turning into a very expensive project for him. The amount of labor to do all this tear down and rebuild is getting up there.

Still waiting on my shipment... last update on tracking was 10 days ago....

This order took 3 weeks to get and now this second one I am on week 2.

I have done 3 H3's now with these bushings and yes it is a lot of work and a total bitch but the end result is well worth it. I have driven brand new H3's and after being completely rebuilt it drives better and tighter than even new.

Good to hear, I have been waiting for a couple of last parts to come before doing a whole tear down!

Did you do the back as well? I am waiting for the frame to shackle bushing since I noticed mine needs it bad!

When I did the ARB leaf springs in the rear they had new bushings on them so no I did not do the rear ones. I did do both the sway bars front and rear but really don't notice any difference there. I have an extra set of both front and rear sway bar bushings if someone is in need.

And yes if you want pictures of the last H3 I just did with all the bushings I am happy to post it up.

Lower control arm rear frame bushing with new torsion bars.


Lower control arm front bushing.


Front sway bar bushing. Note: New larger bolts in frame. Factory ones snapped off so had to re drill and tap them with larger size. I did not have this issues on customer H3's as I heated the bolts a lot prior to trying to remove them.

I know this is an old thread to dig up, but I just installed the bushings along with Alpha bars this week. To be accurate, I wussed out and had a local shop do them since they had the press and the right tools for the job. I hated to do it, but they had a hard time even with the right tools so it was probably money well spent. At any rate, I really was not expecting any kind of noticeable difference, but I was wrong. These are very nice upgrade. It's kind of hard to compare them to the OEM bushings since it's been 8 years and 200,000 miles since they were new, but these are definitely a worthy upgrade in my opinion.

I recommend them over the OEM bushings.

For those who have ordered these, i am about to order lower control arm and sway bar bushings.

Do you select russian post and the terms of delivery? seems to be the only option. Thanks.

Not sure if they are there right now, but I bought mine through E-Bay. I thought that gave me a little more protection between that and PayPal with it being shipped from the other side of the planet.

Gotcha, I just did the same, searched by part number in their ebay store and presto.

Ordered the 2 front lower control arm bushing, 2 rear lower control arm bushings and the sway bar bushings.
Didn't bother ordering anything for the upper control arms as I still have some Michigan Metal Works adjustable control arms sitting in a box.

I bought mine thru Amazon I bought the ones for the rear frame mount where the shackles attach to the leaf springs they seem well made.

I don't want to hijack this thread too much, but I bought a set of these late last year/early this year when he first ran them. Originally they were through a facebook buy. They are still in a box, luckily i didn't get around to installing them when I totalled my previous hummer.

Just message him on facebook, or contact him however you want and he will build you a set. He will also do fixed flat plate arms with poly bushings and a uniball if you want.

 

[GreatDaneHummer]

I still have a few extra poly bushings and will press out my current ones shortly. If anyone wants them please reach out to me.
