    I made myself a tool to remove the bushings from a model-A rearspring.
    It works so good i want to share it if some other needs one.
    The inner dia was betwin 9/16 and 5/8 so i take a 5/8 bolt to start with.
    I grind down the threads until it slides in the bushing.
    And to make sure it wont go in and widen the bushing i weld around
    where at the threads end. Then grind down the weld to just smaller dia
    then the bushings outer dia.

    I could have used this about a month ago. I was trying to push out a bushing from a wishbone. This would have helped a bunch. Thanks for posting.

    A simple solution to something that a lot of guys tend to make a lot harder than it actually is.
