Dear Hiroshi Nishio Welcome to the forum. good points made by Jim above. The video shows a chisel being used. I prefer to use a chain wrench. Good luck with the job. Omar |

I attempted to change them on my Mulsanne last week, they were so tight that I broke two chain wrenches without success ! Ended up having them changed by a Rolls Specialist and the cost made me wonder why I bothered to attempt the job myself. I have done several previously, without problem, using a chain wrench.

Hiroshi, although you say car is '89 it has active damping that started with 90MY build. Just done similar car-and used chisel to "jump" sphere free to unscrew. As Jim says, remove b/pipe for access. |
