Hey guys,

I'm in the process of replacing my lower control arms as well as a bunch of other front suspension parts, but I've come to a problem. How do I get the strut rod bushings off? :confused:
I can't seem to get the front bushing off at the arm. Any advice for removing this?

I've attached a picture to clarify which piece I am talking about. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks a lot!

I just hammered the outside of the metal flange on both sides a little bit at a time and it came off pretty easy.

PB Blaster is your friend also.
 
got it, thanks.

I used a big screw driver to pry it but it was still stuck. Ended up needing to cut it off with a dremel.
