Has anyone been able to push out the bushing on the Gen 4 lower control arms, where the strut mounts to... I can't get the tool in to the slot (engineered intentionally) to push it out...

Take it to a machine or mechanic shop, they'll have the press to get out.

Shop press or ball joint press.

This guy rigged up some diy stuff to do it at home.

Thanks guys, ended up finding a shop to do it. Only was on the passenger side.. when they got to the driver side the strut mount bolt was fine. After the Bistein 5100 install the bolts on the driver side LCA were frozen so cant align on that side.

LoL.. hits just keep coming.

I'm we haven't seen a beefed up aftermarket version. We have just about every other suspension option.

Moog sells the whole LCA bushings and all.
