Pse ignore for now - pics on the way! Carrier Mount Bushing query

(1/2) > >>

jameshoward:
I'm stripping down a 3,46 axle to put onto my car. It's not a quick process, as the axle is in bad shape.

I've managed to get the carrier arm of the bush, but can't get the bush off the pin.

Using the diagram in the link, I need to get part 151 off part 152. I cannot see what's holding it in place, but it won't budge.

If anyone could offer any advice I'd be grateful.

Make sure to remove the nut and axle "keyed screw/bolt".
Refer to the SLS "152" repair kit.  Thne look at "235310 key screw swing axle".
This key screw locks the pin in place.

Thanks, Bob.

I'm going to post photos now I've found my camera.

I now have even more questions.

xcashewx:
so i am guessing that the carrier arm is still attached to the axle?
if it is, when you take off the bolt that locks the pin in place, place a appropriate sized socket with an extension and hit it with a hammer.
the axle pin should come right out the back and the old carrier mount will just fall out.
pictures would be helpful!

merrill:
Can this be rebuilt with the axle still in the car?
