1986 to 2003 Control Arm to Knuckle Bushing Installation Tool

Designed by Kent. Best way to replace that "hidden" bushing without have to remove the control arm from the car. Fits MOST BUT NOT ALL. See list below.

You will need to loosen the bottom of the rear shock, disconnect the control arm from the outer knuckle, loosen the inside arm bolts, and drop the end of the control arm down. Kent designed this tool to make it easy for the DIY mechanic to do this job without having to take it into the shop.

2003 to 2006 SL500 Rear Control Arm to Knuckle Bushing Replacement Kit

Kent calls this the hidden bushing! Always replace these when replacing the rear strut or converting to coil-over shocks.

I call this the hidden and forgotten bushing. Why? Because you can not see it to inspect it, it hardly ever gets changed. When these bushings wear out you will feel "weird" movement in your rear end, especially going over rough ground.
