Good timing - I will be following this sometime in the next couple of weeks. I don't have access to a press so took the easy option of ordering the ORA arms with new bushes fitted. Thanks for the tips will order some replacement bolts before I start the job I think.
Cheers

When i fitted my D&G Arms (also had bushes intact) i fitted the front of the arms to the chassis first - gives you 'more' leverage to fit the rear of the arm to the body/chassis.
And i totally agree - do one arm at a time, or else the axle will rotate (and you dont want this - i know, I've done it once, never again!!) ...
