Hi all,my first post on here, recently failed a test on leaf spring bushings on my Ducato 2005 2.3 jtd i have started removing the rear which almost fell out with wear ! my question is this the rubber fell out with the inner centre eye and the tube with flange is still there (note new bushings are in two halves within a sleeve with a flange ) do what i think are the old sleeves have to come out or are these part of the leaf and new one push into this as i'm thinking poss old one's corroded and desintegrated and fell out if it were that way there would be 2 steel flanges which does not seem wright and at the same time don't want to damage further the old ones i am trying to knock out ! Thanks in advance .

Also the front of the spring is a full length bushing with no steel sleeve advise on this would also be appreciated thanks.
