Guess my phone is crazy then. Well cupcakez doesnt want it anymore so i’ll wait for next person to hit me up. I just ask the next person to be patient with me as i don’t check emails often. And i don’t have notifications on tapatalk, so i may take time to reply due to having a demanding job, please be patient with me . |

Wasn't even for me in the first place. It was for a friend of mine. I'd already used the tool earlier this year, I don't need it again.

I have been repairing cars for many years - I'm a mechanic. I like my profession and I use a lot of tools every day, but the most useful of them is the torque wrench. I bought it after reading the reviews here https://torquewrenchguide.com/reviews/ and after listening to the reviews of my colleagues, I realized that I could not do without this tool.

I’ve done a ton of these bushing replacements. The Z1 tool definitely works for the aluminum subframe z/g’s as the outer shell plate pulled the bushing with very little effort. Now talking about the z/g’s with the steel subframe that’s another story-the outer shell plate doesn’t go through the subframe with the same ease at all- I was using a 3/4in extendable ez-red 4 foot ratchet, with the car on a lift, even that was a huge PITA-and it still took forever.
Ultimately I found that using the small center bushing remover first to get that portion out of the way, cleaning the fluid if there is any left so it doesn’t get in your face, Then using an air hammer with a chisel bit to push the bushing out. It takes literally 30 seconds, if you want to make a couple cuts through the outer shell with a saws-all, collapse it in a little then chisel it out that way works as well. But seriously F that removal tool for the steel subframes, again with the aluminum it works very well. Just my .02

I can remove the bushing in about 20 minutes in the steel sub-frame. Putting a new one in takes me about 1 hour.

If your talking about installing the z1 bushing...put it in the freezer for a few hours, it will slip in with super easy with a couple taps of the mallet, when it’s hot it definitely takes some good beating to get it seated all the way.! You’ll love installing when the bushing is cold!

Anybody still have one of these floating around I could borrow or purchase?
Did y'all drop the subframe? Can't get a good angle on the sawzall with where it's at to cut even all the way through although everyone else seems to have been okay. |

Wouldn't hurt to heat up the subframe a little as well. |
