Title: HR Front end Rebuild Post by: earlyholdenfan on March 30, 2006, 05:32:08 AM Hi All,
I am in the process of rebuilding a HR front end for the wagon, and was wondering if anyone has any tips or things to watch out for , I have cleaned and painted and replaced every moving part (and some that never used to move hehe) and time has come to start re-assembly, so any help would be appreciated, in particular, is it imperative to use the special tools and spacers for the control arm bushes during assembly etc? Cheers Matt ???

I tried a search for any info but couldnt find anything on fitting them, so we will just have to see how we go! Once again I appreciate for the reply!

I have all the bits and will attempt to re-assemble it this weekend! the bushes are expensive and I have approached this tentatively, didnt want to ruin both ethe control arms and bushes, or worse make the front end unsafe. So your support has put my mind to rest
