Subject:      Stabilizer bushing replacement
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Happy 2012,
I'm rebuilding the front suspension on my 84 Westfalia.  Does anyone have suggestions to "gracefully" remove/replace the rubber doughnut bushings between the stabilizer bar and stabilizer links?  I'm concerned with damaging my new bushings trying to force them on.  Is it just a matter of a lot of Vaseline and brute force?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
