hi all,
I have a 2000 Mazda B4000 4x4 with torsion bar suspension.
I am getting ready to replace my upper and lower control arm bushings and all my leaf spring bushings. I'm looking at 3 different shop presses to use to press out the old bushings. I'm looking at a 6 ton, 12 ton, and 20 ton. Would the 6 ton be strong enough to press out all the bushing or do i have to go for either the 12 or 20 ton. I'm not to worried about the price of the press, but I do have limited garage space and the 6 ton would take up the least amount of space. It's small enough that it could sit on one of my benches.
here are the links to the presses
