Hello Fellow Listers:
The time has come to tackle replacement of the bushings in the rear
springs. I managed to get the rear two bolts on the front attachment plate
out by pouring the heat to them. I seem to recall that maybe these are the
easier ones. Any other advice to get the front two out before I get started?
Also, this is the first time I have had the rear wheels off since I
installed new 185/60 tires on 13x5 rims and I see that there is a very
slight rub on the first spring clamp behind the axle. Is it safe to use
1/16" or 1/8" washers on the studs just to move them out a little or is
there a source for various thicknesses of properly designed spacers? At
what point would I need to consider longer studs?
Many thanks
