Rear Trailing Arm Bush

[Karl]

Hi guys. Noticed the rear trailing arm bushes on my integra are shot. Split in half. My question is the press really needed for replacing them. or can it be done safely to the new bush with a hammer?
Thanks guy.

[hello]

yea actually easier with hammer.
its quite hard aligning trailing arm on press.

Thanks. Is it possible to do on the car. or need to be removed and put in a vice for the hammering?

[hello]

theres a tool that allow you to press it out without removing trailing arm from car
expensive though

i removed whole trailing arm to hammer it in/out.

You can hammer out the old RTA bush. I highly recommend installing it with a press.

As above yeah you can smack them out with a hammer, but I'd put them back in with a press as they have to be pressed in the correct distance. Use a rubber bush, don't bother with urethane.
