Hey gents. not sure what to do about this one. Only have 5 days to get the car ready for track weekend and this is a show stopper. Long story short. Brother in law used the tool backwards when i walked away to deal with the baby. How do i get this out?
I had thought of that. Unfortunately I'm in my garage on the floor. I might be able to get it to base and get it on the lift. You think any major damage to the bore will happen? Given it's aluminum?
My favorite type a of fix. Aight thanks gents. I was worried about catastrophic damage. I'll beat it into submission tomorrow. Let you know how it goes.
Lol, I was literally digging into my pocket for my phone to do just that, then I got your reply. It was a success! I beat that b***ch into submission. It took about an hour and a new 4 lbs hammer. Had to file and send quite a bit. Left a nasty gouge. But the new bushing was installed in under 90 secs I think. Never wanna do this job ever again. Oh and the Z1 tool. Almost totally destroyed. Thank you so much for the inputs!!
Taken by pointing towards the rear. Note the gouge at the top Taken facing towards the front of car
man that Z1 tool really only is useful to pull out the inner sleeve, I had same issue and as soon as i saw it biting into the subframe on outter sleeve i just took a sawzaw to it.

I bet i would have been just fine had it been used correctly (as with most tools). BTW anyone want to buy a only used once, mostly complete z1 tool?
