[TR] Rear leaf spring

[DAVID MASSEY]

BTDT on a diff mount on a TR6.  I used an angle grinder and ground the bushing through along on point.  This did two things: First it allowed the sleeve to spring open thereby loosening the pressure on the tin and second it allowed me to use a crescent wrench to rotate the sleeve breaking up the rust bond between the sleeve and pin.  Once it was rotating I was able to pull it off using a pair of clamping pliers and a rotating, pulling motion.

  Took the cat apart,  had the body and frame dipped in an organic derust.  Painted the frame and went to put the leaf springs on.   Uh oh.  Looks like the steel part of that bush didn't come off.
Any ideas on how to get that thing off?** triumphs at autox.team.net **
