It is much more solid than the original factory rubber units, was fairly straight forward to push these in after removing the originals from the trailing arms. I did use a shop press, but it would have been as easy to press it in using a long bolt and nut and something flat on either side.
It did noticeably lifted up the rear-end of the car as an unexpected result, I wouldn't be surprised if the lift was about 2 - 2,5cm! The original rubber sagged so much, the pivot point was closer to the edge than the centre of the diameter of the bush.
Disclosure, I have only driven about 5km after installing these as I want to get a wheel alignment done first, but I could not pick up any increased NVH with these - no doubt that these might transmit a bit more NVH than the very soft rubber originals, but for me, more importantly there would be less movement under acceleration and braking causing tyre scrub. And of course with towing.
good fit easy install cheaper than buying bush installed arms
Easy to put in
Cut old ones out with hacksaw
Use a good solid vice flat plate on one side (little bit cupped even better )
other side need a piece of pipe 50mm deep
slide over thicker raised end
they start to go in on a angle keep winding and pop they go in
Plenty of lube supplyed
a must for all falcon models
If you are looking to replace your worn out factory bushes, don't listen to Ford and look at a better alternative like this. It will stiffen the ride minutely but will definitely not disappoint in life of fitment. Highly recommend, not for the beginner to install as the slippery suckered can escape during the install, and bounce around the workshop.
