2007 Chevrolet Equinox Control Arm Bushing

You will need to remove the lower control arm, then remove the bushing in the direction of the arrow, then install the push-out socket against the bushing from the flanged side of the control arm, install the through bolt with the washer and bearing against the push-out socket, install a backing socket against the control arm, opposite of the flange, install the stabilizer between the control arm ears, install flat washer and nut, and tighten the nut until the bushing is removed.

You may need to install the rear bushing to the lower control arm and tighten the nut to 150 N.m (11 lb-ft), then install the lower control arm.

You may need to install a new bushing from the opposite direction, then reverse the tool layout from the removal procedure using the J 45097, tighten the nut until the bushing is fully installed, and next install the lower control arm.

You will need to remove the lower control arm, the rear bushing nut, and the rear bushing.
