i have a problem with the main rear bushes (one that the main big bolt goes through to the chassis ,now the rear beam i just took of has fucked bushes and the new one has polybushes ,the problem is that the old ones have a metal pin going through them and the polybushes have another metal tube in ,they have been fitted before so it looks like the tube shoud stay but there is no way it will go over the thube that is on he chasis , has any one done these before ? thanks gary

The tube sticking out of the chassis is in fact in the hole that it locates in.The tube was part of the original bush.Give it a knock side to side and it will drop out,then fit the new poly bush with the new tube.

The metal tube in the bushes should fall out with the bushes.
Yank out the metal tube and use the one that cam with the poly bushes, incidentally that is also removable, but normally made of stainless so better to use.
