MartinM 0 Posted October 11, 2007 Can I just pull it in using a piece of 12mm studding, some nuts and plates - or will it need a hydraulic press? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MartinM 0 Posted October 11, 2007 OK...lets get the terminology right Can I pull a brand new trailing arm shaft into a trailing arm using a piece of 12mm studding, some nuts and plates - or will it need a hydraulic press? I'd just try it, but the only piece of decent studding I've got (12mm) is two inches too short Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 244 3 Cars Posted October 11, 2007 You'd be far better to find use of a press, they normally take 2 tonnes minimum to press out & back in again so its more than likely strip the M12 thread before it moves anywhere imo. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
