Your previous post was grim news. I was hoping more leverage would offset
the hold the rust had on the threads. Wishful thinking considering the
bushings were hell to remove - except the right trailing arm bushing. It
had been installed off by 90 degrees, so it was elliptical and just slid out
clean.
Been picking up one of the new springs and taking one of the new Bilstein's
out of the box every so often to just hold 'em and feel the love.
<sniffle>It's so bittersweet - they need a home. Checked the threads on the
shock a few times just to make sure I was turning the old nut in the right
direction. Glad you said something. Would have been bummed to have removed
the old setup only to find I couldn't put it together until I picked up a
new nut. Especially since I usually end up installing parts when most
stores are closed.
