herisites 0 Posted July 16, 2007 Hi mate, I changed the ARB bushes last month on my vr and i had to lower the rear subframe slightly. Support the subframe with a trolley jack and then there are 4 bolts you need to undo. First obviously you need to remove the 4 small bolts holding the ARB in place, then there are the 4 sub frame bolts, 2 which hold the rear of te wishbones to the chassis and 2 actually bolted to the chassis itself. You completely remove the 2 from the wishbones and just loosen the 2 on the chassic do not remove completely, then its just a case of slowly lowering the trolley jack until the ARB can be removed. You may need to keep going back and loosening the sub frame bolts a tad more until the ARB can slide out, just try not to loosen them too much as apparently you can cock up the alignment! Its not too hard, i managed to do it so im sure you can :lol: Rob. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
