Yeah - FIRE is GOOD

Nuttin' like fire to move a stubborn part. The OEM rubber bushings in the sway bar were stuck beyond reasonable effort. I could have spent 15-30 minutes drilling and pushing the bushings out, BUT mans friend is FIRE. Light’em up with a torch and let them burn for 2-3 minutes and the old ones drop right out!

I let the bar cool, cleaned the ends and drove the new one in with an old ¾” socket. Worked like a charm. This bar and these bushings have been sitting on the bench for over a year at least. Glad to get them out of the way.

P.S. Burning Rubber do be stinking though!
