Bofors help - Calling the Brains trust

Dig a hole and use a 5 lb short handled sledge. Unless you are parked over concrete that is.

For anything seized i always swear by heat. Heat followed by oil will suck the oil in to where it's needed. Mike's point about the bronze bearing is valid, so you don't want the pin glowing red in this case.

I got lucky with my Bofors....Brad did all the bullwork.

Hi Tony - seriously though what heating method have you used. You need a large heating device like the flame torch I recently bought, that way a large area can be heated without the heat rapidly dissipating. Regarding the bronze bush, the melting point of bronze is 950c so you had better have your little glass thermometer with you.
