Big Mat said.               You didn't collect the bar from an engineering shop with the big white doors on harecroft road did you?    I sure did Big Mat, is it your place of work. Some impressive CNC machines in there.

Well if I ever need to replace the spring eye bushes on the Landrover again it will be a piece of cake. In the back of the workshop I had the original springs I took off my 76 short wheel base. As I was on my own I cut the end off one of the scrap springs to make for easy handling. I dont know if the bushes were original but prior to wire brushing they looked well rusted. As i didnt have any mandrels I had to resort to sockets, DONT TRY THIS AT HOME sockets have been known to shatter, although one was an impact socket. I am in no doubt a 10 ton press would have done it just as well, but this was just another little play exercise. I pressed it back in just to complete the exercise.
