[Tigers] Trunk Hinge Removal

[PhastPhill at aol.com]

I did mine last winter. I took the bolts out of the trunk holding the arms.  
Let the arms down and take off spring. Put arms back on trunk wrap them with a 
 cloth and clamp with a small vise grip. Take out tank, right side first. 
Repeat  on other side. When done drop arms one side at a time , put on spring, 
bolt back  on trunk. Check spring anchor points, mine were starting to pop the 
spot welds.  Next tip, buy all new rubber bits for tanks, then just cut the old 
stuff away  when removing, makes it simple. Leave old balance tube till you 
need to use it  as a snake to pull new one through.......cheers
