So you think the bush goes through the swingarm bracket on the right side, passes through the shocker and then locates on the left swingarm but does not go all the way through, (have i got that right).
The nut and bolt then holds the bush and its only the bolt not the spacer that goes through the swingarm left bracket.
Tapping the bush sounds a good idea, is it not hardened, snapping a tap would be of a problem.
What a crazy bit of engineering.
Think i will try the warming up of the bush,
thanks for info
Take the top mounting bolt out, its loading the bottom through the spring. The bush goes through the right hand lug, through the bearing, but not all the way through the left hand lug. Yes, the surface will be hard enough to work with the bearing, but I was able to punch a groove in the surface with a small chisel, and use that groove to drive it out. Took some though. If youve a dremmel or similar, grind a groove in it and use that to punch it out
