    Hi,

    Does anyone have a tool to remove the bushing on factory Harley forward mount controls that I can borrow or rent?

    I need to replace the shift lever side bushing on my 09 Sporty because its sloppy as heck and I recon will bugger up the quick shift when fitted with false positives. 

    I think its a JIMs 5518 tool.

    Mate I've done a few by slotting the old bush with a 32TPI hacksaw and then just folding the cut-edge in with a small cold chisel. It just falls out. 
    The HD tool compresses the bush and makes it even harder to get out. Seriously, the job's easier with hand tools.
