    I'm trying to remove my leafs and I have the rear end of one spring unbolted and free from the mount with the front end of the leaf completely lodged in the mount. The sleeve inside the bushing is significantly misaligned causing the inner sleeve to catch within the mount. A mallet and a 2x4 is not even close to doing anything effective. Any suggestions as to how to get this dislodged? 20181208_163858.jpg20181208_170226.jpg20181208_171530.jpg

    Disregard. I forgot that I had a set of Jaws of life. Leafs removed successfully
