Throw out tower removal

08-17-2009, 04:36 AM

There may have been a thread on this already but I can't find it. I need to safely remove the tower to get it cad plated. Sure, I could muddle thru it but why re-invent the wheel or risk damaging the cover. Any suggestions out there to safely remove it?
Thank you,
Wayne

Simply heat the kicker cover with a propane torch and the bushing will come out.
