Re: [6pack] [TR] Re-installing Front Suspension Springs

[DAVE HOGYE <dlhogye@comcast.net>]

That's terrible condition for any poly or rubber bushing in such a short time.  
Complete failure.  I've taken many TR suspensions apart and never saw even a 
60+ year old original factory bushing in that condition. Just yesterday I 
completely disassembled an early TR4 suspension from a badly bent frame and 
what I'm sure where the original bushings didn't look as bad.  The durometer of 
those poly bushing must be way too soft.  I wouldn't use those again.  I'd send 
those photos to the manufacturer and supplier.  Terrible.
I too made my own spring compressor similar to the Moss tool.
