above in fig.1.
4.1.4.
Slide washer (E) onto the rod and retain the whole assembly by screwing the nut with washer (F) onto the threaded rod.
4.1.5.
Hold nut D with a spanner and then place a second spanner over the nut with washer attached (F). This should preferably be a ratchet ring
spanner for ease of use and maximum accessibility. As the nut is turned extraction will commence as indicated in fig.2. Some considerable
pressure may need to be applied to initiate the first movement of the bush. As the bush leaves the suspension arm ensure that the assembly is
supported as it is likely to fall away from the suspension arm once the bush becomes loose.
