KJ Cherokee A arm bushes & ball joint

Quite an easy job, 2 x 15mm bolts on the front & an 18mm nut/bolt for the ball joint. Tried (not too hard) to hammer out the bushes & joint but they were in fast, so went to my local garage & got them to press them out & refit.

Refitting requires the bush bolts to go in first them raise the diff up square to mate up with the balljoint pin. I needed 2 jacks for this as the diff bottom isn’t flat.

Spot the engineering use of a brick to stop the a arm from moving up when the diff was raised on the jack, worked perfectly, Jeep spanering like my old mate PtP used to do.

Not as bad as I was expecting, nothing seized 🙂 Ready for the dreaded MOT tomorrow now.
