- Truck Leaf Spring Bushing Removal, And Leaf Spring Bushing Replacement
Hey guys were working on an 88 C3500 and this is the first time we have actually done leaf spring bushings. They don't wear out too often, but we got new one's with the shackle kit and figures why not? I've always heard everyone complain about how hard they are but really there not. Just a few correct tools and a little time.

Thanks for this video! It was very educational for someone whose ‘97 1-Ton van needs new leaf spring bushings! It helps me see what the mechanics will be dealing with.
Canadian Rust is relentless,every job is just that much harder so THANKS for the video because it sure helps to know going in.I like that body style,nicest since 67-72 Truck.
Great work, jelps out alot
Awesome video and instruction guys!! Brilliant idea to use the ball joint press. I have the bed off of my Silverado 1500 to replace the shock mount cross members (ugh... rust never sleeps!) and the spring braces, shackles and rear bushings. Thanks for posting this!!
Right on!
You did a great job tutorial on how step by step instructions to remove and reinstall the bushing back, then even showed even a faster was of removing, thanks this will help lots for me, I have to do the same I feel the back swaying bad even worse with trailer, great job guys..👍👍
Glad we could help..
I added a bolt buster heat element to your method,👍🏾👍🏾
Was that your first time?
When I replaced the bushings on my FJ60 I just torched the old bushings. Not environmentally friendly but saved a lot of headache.
To each is their own..
Good job , but with WD40 and a few time 🛠️🧰
Does the new bushing press in from the inside or outside of the spring?
However the original one was
Nice! where did you get that tool I can't find one anywhere?
Which tool?
I had it from AutoZone several times, the ball joint tool kit....you can have it for couple of days for free...then you return it...they just take some deposit I believe. ...I have used it on some other bushings before...it works...you need to improvize little bit...and do it in steps like these guys did in this video. Great job btw
