In this video we are replacing the tag axle bushings on our 1984 Bluebird Wanderlodge to try to minimize some of the wandering of the bus while driving. I have done the castor modification and most of the front suspension has been rebuilt or inspected. There is very little play in any of the front suspension, but I will be going through it again to make sure I have not missed anything.
Some info on items in this video:
Bushings were purchased at Stengelbros.com
Pivot Bushings Qty. (2) Dayton #321-284 (bushing on end that attaches to the frame)
Axle Bushings Qty. (4) Dayton #321-341 (bushings on the axle end)
OTC 7045B Spring Compressor (used to remove the bushings and install the new ones) This is not the correct tool for this job but it works, unfortunately the price of this tool doubled since I purchased it a while back.

If you are curious about the proper bushing installer, here is a link to the Ridewell Bushing Installer Instructions:
www.ridewellcorp.com/manuals/6100044-NarrowBushTool-Instrctn-RevD-11-14-19.pdf
I am not certain if the narrow tool is used or the wide tool, so I would confirm the correct tool before ordering.

I miss my grandson. Good video. See it clear. That socket got me nervous. Like all or nothing (stripped). Worked out

Your ingenuity to get stuff fixed is amazing. Keep up the great videos.

Thanks Tim! I can thank my dad for that, he was a master of making things work with what you have around.
