I don't know if it was a british engineer, some mechanic or the DPO, but
I'm really mad at somebody. I'm mad at the person who put in the bolt
on the inner bracket of the trailing arm on the rear suspension of my 4A
IRS. They must be sadistic because they decided to thread the bolt from
the end which nearly abutts (sp?) the frame. As a result, removing the
trailing arm to replace the two bushings is not possible. Instead, one
must unbolt the whole bracket from the frame, upsetting the shims & rear
camber, etc. Would it have been so hard to just put the bolt in from
the other side, where it could just be drawn out and the arm easily
removed? Grrr! Has anyone else shared this joy? Is there some good
reason for threading the bolt from the difficult side?
