What's the best technique to use ,once the upper control arm assembly is off,to get that pivot bar an bushings out of the control arm ,aside from burning or a press.? I do have a basic bushing press tool but with the pivot bar there I cant get to both sides of it..
02 rwd,3.9.
Maybe a gear puller tool,I'm sure theres several methods/different tools ,just looking for quickest technique[aside from burn/press)
Thanks.

 

Guess I'll try a gear puller ..

 

i used our cheap harbor freight press.

 

Got em off!
I used the 3 tooth jaw puller ..Was tricky but worked ! A GM torsion bar tool helped too,being like a big clamp with a open end.an a end tool to hook with.Still have 1 sleeve to get off.


Will I have to use it again to press the new ones in though they fit snug..?
thanks


UPDATE : Got em on with the same GM portion tool👍
