REPLACE THE SPRING
BUSHINGS
It is recommended that all front spring bushings are
replaced as a set.
Your vehicle will be equipped with one of two types of
spring bushings, internal and external (see illustration
to the right):
•
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.
1. Make sure the key-switch is in the “OFF”
position, then remove the key.
