Can anyone tell me the best way to remove the front roller bearing bushes from the wishbone please?
I didn't want to start simply hammering away at it in case they deformed, but can't think of another way Dunno

They are usually a pretty tight fit, and can easily be ruined trying to remove them. As said a puller is your best bet after warming them a bit with a blowtorch or paint stripper gun if you don't have a blowtorch.
Saying that, I don't think replacement sleeves were big money from Rich anyway.

Cheers, they are in fairly tight. I'm fitting them to new wishbones and will be replacing the bearings, just trying to preserve as much of them as possible!
