Huw's Control Arm Bushing Removal Tool. A breeze.

Huw,

I'm just sending this message to say that your "tool" for control arm bushings
removal is 1st class.

I went to HD at lunch time, and spent $4 in parts.

Once, I got home, this afternoon, it took me 10 minutes to finalize the
"tool".

Then around 2 minutes per bushing!!!

Can't get any better than that.

Thanks,

Carlos.
