Front thrust arm removal
I'm looking to do my own thrust arm bushings. It appears simple. But it looks like after removing the nut on the bolt at the front, that there's not room for the bolt to slide far enough to pull out the arm. There's some plastic part that would stop the bolt from sliding further than about one inch. Is this really a non-factor? Or more stuff must be removed to be able to slide out the bolt? X5Girl's excellent DIY writeup doesn't have any special mention of anything other than remove the nut and bolt.
