Aamir Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Hi all. I'm stuck, I'm trying to remove my engine mount to poly bush it but my hand is hurting from hammering this piece of shit.Best way to remove the rest of it please? Quote
micky boy Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Hahahaha you havent half been going at that lol I've never done them befor but do you need to get rid of that outer ring in order for the polly bush to fit? Quote
Aamir Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 Yeah and its a fucking pain in the arse I'm whacking it with a hammer and it moves like 0.000000001 mm Quote
Kingcarr Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Try heating it up might soften the metal, or heat the outside up as then the metal will expand? Quote
Aamir Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 Ive got a blow torch next to me but when i heat it up the rubber burns too and the smell gets to my head and i feel fucked Quote
micky boy Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Yeah i was going to say heat it up! Where a mask or something lol Quote
Aamir Posted November 16, 2013 Author Posted November 16, 2013 My heads killing. Seriously its pissing me of. My hands are fucked. They've got rubber all over them and its so sticky it wont even come of ffs. Might just drop the mount of at a local garage and pay them to remove the piece of shit Quote
Jamie1st Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I cut a slit down it and knocked it out with ease. Quote
WallaceGlanza Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 I cut a slit down it and knocked it out with ease. Yup cut two slits in the ring with a hacksaw, that will release it and then push out easily - certainly wouldn't need the beating you've given it! Quote
Aamir Posted November 21, 2013 Author Posted November 21, 2013 Muhahaha ive sorted it thanks guys. Thanks for all the help i should have cut a slit in it in the first place. Quote
daniel_g Posted November 21, 2013 Posted November 21, 2013 Moan moan moan moan moan moan moan moan moan moan moan hahaha. Least youve sorted it now. Quote
Calum122 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Amazing. Can a Mod rename this thread to make it easier to find. And add tags, I didn't look very hard but it could have been easily missed.I'll give this a go and see how I personally get on. Quote
Calum122 Posted January 11, 2015 Posted January 11, 2015 Yep just finished doing that at 17:45 so literally twenty minutes after reading this thread.I did two slits opposite each other then took a decent size flat head screw driver and hammered it into one of the slots that I made and voila it just fell out.So thanks you've just saved me HOURS of labour Quote
