Installation/Set-Up Challenges for Bushing Pullers

Bushing pullers are used to remove bushings from various mechanical components like suspension systems, engines, or steering parts. Some common installation or setup challenges when using bushing pullers include:

1. Proper selection of the right size and type of bushing puller for the specific bushing being removed.
2. Ensuring that the threaded rod of the bushing puller is securely attached to the bushing and threaded in straight to avoid binding.
3. Difficulty in accessing the bushing in tight or hard-to-reach spaces.
4. Ensuring the stability of the tool and the component being worked on to prevent accidents or damage.
5. Dealing with rust or corrosion that can make the bushing more difficult to remove.
6. Ensuring proper lubrication to ease the removal process.
7. Using proper safety precautions, such as wearing gloves and eye protection, especially when dealing with high tension or compression forces during the removal process.

These challenges can be overcome by carefully following the manufacturer's instructions, ensuring proper tool selection and setup, and taking necessary safety precautions.
