Guide: How to replace front differential support bushing
The nut of the front differential bushing (not the one on subframe/crossmember) is spinning (my H3). I see that it was (factory) attached to frame, but has come unattached. Very small opening, not allowing me to put box end, or any other, wrench, so as to hold. Any ideas?
Please READ what the rules are at this forum before posting as you would then know that digging up OLD THREADS to tack on your question is NOT how we do things. Not how most any forums do it either. READ: Old Threads/'Necro-Bumping'
You also do not need to post more than one question on the same topic, which you did in another OLD Thread, which I now closed.
Did you search the interweb for the answer to your question before posting? If you did you would see vids, and on line products, some with install instructions on how to replace the Front Diff bushings. You need to take apart the at least one lower control arm from the spindle, pull the axle half shaft, remove the bracket that the side busing in question is inserted in, and then remove the bolt and bushing for replacement.
Thank you for your suggestion. I'm new to the forum, I apologize for my ignorance.
I have searched web, with none, or few instructions on FRONT bushing. I understand removal of mounting plate, but unable to remove due to the nut spinning on the bushing bolt. Removing the bushing is not in question. As seen in MY pic, the nut is unaccessable. Videos on web (few available) already have bolt removed, therefore not addressing my issue of nut spinning.
