Thanks. I was able to loosen it enough by the fuel filter and had to detach the reservoir and the PS line from the hydroboost to the steering box.

General Buick Tech / Damn body bushings

« on: May 03 2018, 09:51:07 PM »

Okay so I dove into replacing my body bushings and read the whole instructions on the vortex site along with anything I could find online so I would be prepared. I was not as prepared as I had though 

Removing the old bolts was pretty easy and 5,6 and 7 slid in like a champ. Then I moved to 4 and three and cannot get the body high enough to get the bushings out. The body stops at at about 2” and won’t lift any further.

It looks like the e-brake has tention on it and maybe the PS line from hydroboost to steering box but it’s not tight at the stopping point.

Any ideas what I’m missing here?
