Author	Subject: Rear axle mount change
cornish_pug Regular Location: Marazion Registered: 18 Dec 2009 Posts: 368 Status: Offline	Post #1 I'm going to be changing the rear bushes tomorrow. Do any brake lines need disconnecting before lowering the axle? I'll be lowering the axle just enough to get the bushes out, but I won't be taking it to the floor. ________________________________________ Team Diesel

Just be careful not to drop it ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project.
