Re: SER1 Chassis Bushings

Having just replaced the rear springs on my S2a - if you are putting in 
new bushings, you probably should use poly ones.   They press in easily, 
and come out even easier.

I'm not sure how others take out the old original bushings - but I had 
to hammer out the center and then use a recipro saw to cut thru most of 
the outer steel ring .. then use a hacksaw to finish the cut ..then 
hammer and chisel by curling the cut cylinder inwards.  Takes a long 
time.  If you are tempted to use the reproc saw tho go completely thru 
the outer steel ring, make sure you cut upwards.
