Urgent help needed, console bush stuck

Featured Replies

Basically the cupra bush is stuck half way in my fitting tool nut and bolt have seized so i need someone with nuts bolts and probably and angle grinder to come help me out in cwmbran. If there is anyone who can they will be suitably beer tokened.

Hope there is someone to help,

Thanks

Thats why polibushes are easier . Just a firm press .

if your stuck can you use a hacksaw tp get off thread. Amd maybe a big hammer / vice to press it all the way in.

Btw dont know how tight they are bit plenty of oil around bushthen hold kkneeling between legs hold a block of wood over bush then hit it with a hammer . Hard!

Did you clean up the inside of the hole first with sandpaper ?

Btw note to critic's... I am giving the guy a "get me out of the ****" note. Yes its not the preferred way. But if it gets his car back on the road. Even temporary then its a win !

Hi, yeah i did consider poly bush but went cupra and it now looks like a mistake opps. 

Think thats going to be my plan but its a high tensile bolt and my hacksaw seems to be having little to no effect. 

 

And i have ti be honest i forgot!! so my own doing, sat staring at the sandpaper i bought to do it now!! :/ 

 

Thank you for the advice, il certainly try it :) 

Cut the nut and split off ?
