Hey folks, I'm doing the LCA's in my 2001 E320 4Matic Wagon. Seems two of the bushings on the front LCA aren't aligned. One is perpendicular with the plane of the LCA while the other is a quarter turned from that. These are factory and I'm wonder if I should push the new ones in the same way? Or are these a factory fudge up and both should be on the same plane with the LCA?
PS, I was pretty discouraged when I realized my 99 dollar Amazon bushing/bearing sleeve tool kit had zero chance of working on that rear LCA bushing. But I came across a novel idea (at least I think it is) and I'll post the video of the procedure on the passenger side LCA rear bushing job here on the forum. It was a 70 dollar tool at Harbor Freight (50 if you're a club member) and it pushed out in a couple minutes and it came out like butter. It actually popped out like a cork from a cheap bottle of Baby Duck, I kid you not it was easy and this is my first bushing job ever.
