The internal bushing is a plastic insert that is pressed into the spring eye. There are one of these bushings for
each spring eye.
•
The external bushing consists of two plastic bushings on each end of the spring eye.
•
Refer to the parts list to identify the bushings used in your vehicle.
6: Raise the front or rear of the vehicle depending on which spring is to be removed and support with jack
stands.
7: Remove the spring from the vehicle.
