CC bushings - shop needed

[phxtlc]

I'm finally back home for good now and need to finally get these CC bushings in. Being under some time constraints, I'm looking for a east valley or scottsdale shop to get them installed quick and cheap. Of course they need to know what they're doing.

I seem to have developed a front wheel vibration at about 60 and especially around curves at speed. I've had the wheels balanced and figured can't diagnose much more until the beast is aligned correctly. I plan to jack it up and do the wheel wiggle and then check the preload. Steering wheel has slight shimmy (assume bad alignment) so I figure more suspension than steering.

Thanks

Any shop with a press that's willing to let you align the bushings yourself AND charge your a minimal fee. Maybe a local alignment shop would let you pay the tech under the table for pressing in the bushings.

I've got the tools and I've done CC bushings before. I'm even in the east valley...of Tucson.

4 wheelers supply does them for 100 bucks. Drive in drive out.

Have never done cc bushings before, but I do have a press. If you know how they go in, you are welcome to use my press. I am in south Chandler, Cooper & Riggs.

I had Jason at TruckWerks do mine. I'm happy enough. I brought in the arms all marked. Rust was involved. I'm glad I didn't try it myself.

What did he charge you?

I have never done a cc bushing replacement, but I had a tool made to press the bushings out and the new one in. You are welcome to borrow it. I also have a press if you are interested. I live in NE phoenix/Scottsdale border area.

Got the bushings in (thanks Kevin!) and I have to tell you, it really does make a difference wuth the OME mediums contrary to what people may claim. I'm not saying that it was that bad before hand, but it is worth the trouble.

Reduced left / right pull when braking a bunch. Doesn't follow road imperfections as much.

Cuts through tin cans and are still good enough to cut through that tomato.

Good deal, I was a little worried about the tomato.
