RTAB tool

[Fasteddie]

Hi does anybody have the tool required for the RTAB removal, this job doesn't look that bad and I'd like to do it but wondered if anybody localish has a tool they can lend me or otherwise does anybody know where I can rent one - if that is possible.

if ur careful ,they can be easily drilled out.or use a couple of good quality sockets and a vice .hope this helps

Thanks cosmicboy, are you using a vice in situ? Thinking about I may have a go with a few G clamps. Can somebody give me an idea of what's best. Ploy bushes or std bushes with limiter or poly bush and limiter?

[shimmy]

dont think poly bushes need a limiter

my philosophy is that poly bushes will shake the car to bits withiout as cage - so stick to rubber

[Fasteddie]

so std rubber bush and a limiter then? I expect if I'm going to go as far as fit the limiters then the bush should be replaced?? oem or is there a better bush without going poly?

To be honest I'd just buy the tool rather than muck around with a drill.

I did mine with a tool and it makes life a whole lot easier having one and much faster too. You'll also be less likely to damage stuff.

Got mine from here: I also have the FCAB one too, but have not used that myself.

Standard bushing + limiter is a great setup (I use the Vorshlag limiter kit and find it to be pretty good)
