I have a fairly loud and annoying squeek coming from the rear of the Westy (77). I think I've narrowed it down to the rubber suspension busheson the spring plate covering the torsion bar. Question...Can I remove the spring plate bearing cover without affecting anything else, lube the bushing (lube to use?) and replace the cover no problem? The Haynes Manual is a little vague about this, and I haven't touched rear suspensions before, but like I said it's a REALLY annoying sound, and I can tell it's coming right from that area. Any help greatly appreciated! Thanks, Tom "Who are You?" "I'm fine thanks, who are you?" "I'm fine too, but you no get in without the password"
