A back bushing is a mechanical component used in various applications, often serving as a support or alignment feature. It typically fits into a housing or assembly and provides a surface for other components, like shafts or bearings, to interface with. Back bushings can help reduce friction, wear, and misalignment, contributing to the overall efficiency and longevity of machinery. They are commonly found in automotive and industrial equipment.
You will know when the control arm bushing should be replaced by the way the vehicle drives. The back end will sway back and forth.
The bushings are pressed into the eye of the leaf spring on each end. The leaf spring should be removed and the old bushing pressed out on a shop press then press a new bushing pressed back in. In the old days I used to burn the old rubber out of the bushing then chisel out what is left.
The squeak is caused by lack of lubrication to the steering bushing. Pull the steering wheel off. There is a rubber bushing that surrounds the steering shaft.

The sway bar bushing is located inside the the clamp that secures the sway bar to the frame. They use a busing to allow a little flex in the sway bar but not enough to cause a clank sound everytime the bar is flexed. So if the bushing is worn or gone your sway bar will make a bunch of clunk/clank sounds when the car is in motion.
if the tool won't work you can try hydraulics fill the cavity behind the bushing with grease and wrap the end of your greasegun with eletrical tape till it has a tight fit in the bore of the bushing and pump the grease gun while holding the end in the bushing this should force the bushing out from the back if that dont work fillthe cavity with grease and find a bolt the will fit with tape wraped around it and hit it with a hammer this will shock the bushing loose keepadding grease till it pops out.
The pilot bushing is installed into the rear of the crankshaft. The pilot bushing supports the input shaft of the transmission.
A bushing is a piece of rubber that separates two pieces of metal from touching and/or grinding.
To replace the lower control arm bushing on a 1995 Chevy Beretta, start by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheel. Then, detach the lower control arm from the vehicle by removing the bolts connecting it to the chassis and the steering knuckle. Use a bushing press or a suitable tool to remove the old bushing from the control arm, and install the new bushing in its place. Finally, reattach the control arm to the vehicle, ensuring all bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's specifications before lowering the car back to the ground.
Most new sway bar bushings are split so they can be R & R easily. Remove clamp from bushing, slip or cut old bushing out, slip new bushing in and replace bushing clamp.
