I've never put a rotoflex donut into a GT6, but I have taken them out.  Since 
releasing the vertical link from the leaf spring made it simple by vitrue of 
releasing the tension, I'd expect reversing that order would make installation 
simple enough.  Maybe the levering involved is extreme with a new donut, but it 
wasn't hard to control with an old donut.

I did see a web page years ago on replacing the donut without removing 
anything.  The writer claimed it could be done by some type of rotating of the 
axle(s) and working it in our out.  He said he had done it himself this way.  
More was to be posted, but the web page went down before he put up any better 
details.

Yah, 
it's a bit of a mystery to me too, since I did the job
over 12 years ago!
