I dropped the complete front suspension on my 1974 914 today,
I pulled the caliper, & rotor, back plate off.
Then I took out the double taper bolts so that I could pull the shock/axle tower off of the ball joint at bottom of shock tower on the a-arm.
1. I could not seperate them as easily as the manual says, anyone know how to get those apart.
Then I took out the tensioning screw so that i could get the torsion bars out as I have new ones and remove the old rubber bushings, the rubber bushings appear to be bound to the a-arm/mounting flange and are not easily removed.
2. How do you remove the old rubber bushings as the a-arms do not come off very easlily.
Anyone have any tricks/tips
Thanks
Gary
