    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    damn, that reminds me i forgot to renew my tags

    Anyone know of a good place to have some bushings pressed in the Huntsville area for a reasonable price?

    I've got a spare set of stock UCAs that I'd like to get the old bushings pressed out of and new ones pressed in so I can swap the entire UCA when I do my upper ball joints.

    Oh, gotcha. Still interested to hear how that went. I tried pressing mine out with a ball joint press rented from Autozone and a couple big sockets but I couldn't get it to budge. Don't have the space to buy a Harbor Freight press or anything like that either.

    We did it ourselves. We had to melt the rubber out with a blowtorch. It's just rubber with a steel sleeve in the middle, not sure it can be pressed out.

    We did the LCA's.

    I replaced my light racing upper bushings and I can say it was a pain to do by myself. Took me a full day. First I had to cut out what I could of the rubber in the bushing. Then I took my sawzall and cut into the bushing sleeve. Changed to a hacksaw to get it closer and then used a thick flat bar to warp the sleeve until I could get to come out. With someone else help watch the cutting I could have gotten it cut better and required less BFH action. Also having someone hold the upper while using the BFH would have been a huge help.

    I've been wanting to get a HF press.
