Cast part will break not bend. I removed the rubber to install my floorboards and drileed through the cast part to secure them. Max

I took it off and used the Bigger Hammer approach on it without taking it apart. It is now better, but not quite as Mr. Suzuki made it. How about a how-to on taking it apart? Thanks for you help. Adios, David

on the end where you removed the allen head screw there is a chrome washer up against the rubber. Slide this washer off and then slide the rubber off and lay it on a solid surface and use your hammer. When you get done you will see that the rubber and the chrome washer will only go on one way. DO NOT BEAT ON the CAST Part!

It worked pretty good without cracking it up!
