    Can i use a shop press to install/remove some bushings?

    I have a 12 ton shop press that i use to rebuild motorcycle engines


    ive nver taken apart the rear subframe, but im planning to replace th bushings when i over haul my suspention


    do i have the clearance in the rear to use my press to install the subframe bushings?

    i figured i can just freeze and pound in the trailing arm bushings


    I know this has been goine over before but no one was using shop tools just homemade stuff

    Once you take the subframe out, you will have the room..
