86subaru Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 you may need a pin wrench socket , if you look i asked about a place to get one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pyromanic Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 you may need a pin wrench socket , if you look i asked about a place to get one I consider the pin wrench socket an extravence and frivolity. A stout brass punch or drift works fine for me. (I have the pin socket, and didn't care for it). Pyro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qman Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 If you are using a parts car then just swap the trailing arms. Much easier than trying to swap bearings. They are not generally usable after removing them. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
