OTC released two new suspension bushing tool kits for on-vehicle R&I of single-wrap and double-wrap heavy-duty suspension bushings – Suspension Bushing Kit with Pump and Suspension Bushing Adapter Kit. Both tool kits replace worn-out, rusted and frozen heavy-duty suspension bushings faster and easier without risking heat or other damage by providing a 25-ton capacity, the company said. Each kit saves hours on each job by making quick work of Pivot and D-pin bushing R&I.
OTC’s latest suspension bushing tool kits include:
4247-FR Suspension Bushing Kit with Pump: Includes air/hydraulic pump, 25-ton hydraulic cylinder, hose with couplers, complete puller leg/plates and adapter set for double-wrap leaf springs.
4254-FR Suspension Bushing Adapter Kit: For use with OTC service sets; 4247, 4275, 4261 or 4263 with 4106A 25-ton ram.
OTC said each suspension bushing kit features Hendrickson rear suspensions, including Primaax EX, Comfort Air and FCCC V-Ride ™ Pivot and D-Pin suspension bushings, and freightliner rear suspensions, including double and single-wrapped FAS II Airliner rear suspension bushings. Both also include centering adapters to align tool and bushing for clean installation. Both are available through OTC distribution partners and resellers.
