Leading CAB How-to?

Hello,

Does anyone know of or know how to remove and replace the leading CAB bushing? I've found all kinds of info on the trailing CAB but wanted to replace both while I was "in there".

It's not that hard you just have to press them out, or even easier get a drill and cut holes in the old cab(to rip the rubber will make it super easy to remove then just press it in.

Careful with the drill tho so you won't damage the control arm, if you start to see metal stop lol

Also if you do use the drill method and don't have a press, If you got a vise you can press the new one in that way. (If your having trouble dish soap will help lube it up and dry kinda sticky too)

If you have access to a press, Then press out old, Press in new and donzo.

Good luck and keep us posted.
