Hey Scotty love the channel! I got a 2007 Saturn Ion with 95,000 miles it has the 2.2 liter automatic, I scored this for 300 bucks but it needed a little work we got everything fixed and I got new tires put on and they tell me my rear passenger side has a bad bushing I know the the tire guys real good and I trust they are telling me the truth my question is how hard is it to change I've never done one and my buddy who helped me fix it ( he did most of the work) has never changed one either thanks for all the great advice I never miss a video SemperFi Jeff

My guess is #13. Getting #11 out to press out/in the bushing will be the big job.


Ok thank you gonna try to get to it next week I'll let you know thanks again SemperFi Jeff


We finally got some time to fix it and it turns out both springs and bearings were bad too so it turned into a pretty big job but we got it fixed thanks for the help

Which bushing? There's several different bushings in the rear of your car.

 


Sorry should have said what they wrote on the receipt, RR- bushing that connects to frame


Changing bushings are not difficult. It's easier with a press, but I've replaced them on other vehicles in the past with some big sockets, washers, nuts and threaded rod since I don't have a press. I'll post a diagram for your Ion when I get home from work.


Ok thanks
