You will need some type of puller to get them off as they will be pressed on pretty good. when you install them on the new arms just put on. Tightening the nut will press them back on

Do you think a dealer would have those bushings in stock?

So i just press it on to install then impact the nut on which will compress it?? Seems easy enough.

You just need to pull or pop them off anyway you can. No twisting or anything. Me personally, I was only able to get them off with a bearing separator from harbor freight. I returned the tool to hb after I did it. Only took a few seconds with the tool.

Yeah sometimes you can get that cone off, BUT 95% of the time you have to just get a new one. This has been the case for me on most of the aftermarket a-arms thats i've installed. When you get the new cone it will press in as you tighten it.

Is that something that a dealer would have in stock? I'd like to get my car back on the road as soon as possible but if they gotta order it thats fine, i can just ride the bike.

Yeah they should have it in stock. I know the guys i did it for bought them at their local dealerships and a few from riverside. I think they were a good amount more though than riverside( like $12 each instead of $24 or something like that)

I know it's probably too late, but get 2 and replace both.
