I finally unfroze the top underhood bushing on my Evo. It took a torch. The bottom one doesn't seem to be moving either. But the real problem is that I lost the E-clip for the top bushing when I took it off. I double-checked the hold I had on it, etc. and was sure I wasn't gonna lose it - oh well.

I may still find it but in the attempts to get that bushing removed it won't come out of the loop from the tranny. It finally came off the pin but I can't still actually remove the bushing. That may be from trying to manhandle it a bit to get it off - the edges that would normally slip through are likely a bit rough or out of round.

Delightful.

At any rate, I'm looking for a new set of bushings with E-clips.

Most immediately I need a damned E-clip for the top bushing.

Anyone got an idea where I can source any of the above?

Thanks!
