Some time ago a member, whom I can't remember, posted a homemade tool for removing rear spring pins. It consisted of a 3/8 bolt threaded on one end with 1/8 in pipe threads. Built one today, took all of 10 minutes, and succesfully remove all the pins and bushings from my rear springs. Could not have done it otherwise. So a very special thank you to the member who posted this and if he is not the inventor special thanks to him too.

 

Do you have a link? I could totally use that tool....

 

real simple, stephen, you cut the head off of a 3/8 bolt, grade 5 is good, thread the cut end with a 1/8 pipe thread. Thread the pipe thread end into the grease fitting hole, slide a socket, I used a 1 1/8 impact, over the bolt now put a nut on the original 3/8 bolt threads and turn away. wish I could remember the thread the poster included a picture. Real simple and works good.

 

That was probably my post, I made that about 2 months ago. I posted it in the Cool Tips & Tricks thread

 

Thanks Albuq F-1, this time I saved the picture. Great tool, works great and almost free.
