[TR] TR6 steering column - removal & bushing replacement?

[Bob Danielson]

Brian,
The easiest way to replace the bushings is to not replace the original ones
which are a bear to do. Art Lipp
(http://www.trparts.com/newitems/column.html)  sells a "tap in" Delrin
bushing set for $25.00 that doesn't require removal of either the column or
the old bushings. Drop Art an email (LIPP04 at yahoo.com)and he can tell you
more about it.

Subject: [TR] TR6 steering column - removal & bushing replacement?

Does anyone have any advice on the steps and tricks involved in the removal
of the upper steering column in a TR6 - including the replacement of the
upper and lower bushings within?  Is this as hard as it look?

All the manuals I have seem to be rather vague on this - particularly the
bushing replacement.

Thanks much in advance,
