Thought I'd post some pics up of the tool I made to remove the stock rubber bushings from the rear knuckle for my car. These need to come out so some polyurethane bushings can go in. I'll post the install of those up when I have it completed.
Here is a pic of the tool I made to remove the rear knuckle bushings
