Has anyone used the polyurethane two piece rear trailing arm bushings from Euro Sport Tuning? Do you know if you need to make the bushing tool to install the bushings? Can you use an air hammer to remove the old ones or a torch? Thank You!

Probably Super Pro as their the most common for the 240. Check out fcpgroton for price on the same bushing. No need for the tool as the poly bushings use the old shell. If the shell is badly rusted and needs to be changed then the tool would be needed. IPD sells the bushing with a new shell. I burned mine out with a propane torch. The first time I did it I ended up melting the plastic tubes for the emergency brake cables.

I'm glad I wasn't the only one to melt the plastic tubes.

IMHO I wouldn't burn the bushings out again with a propane torch. You really need to oxy-act. torch. The propane took way to long and made a huge mess.

Good luck!
