Rear wheel bearing

Well, I have a bad bearing so I thought (while you are in there), might as well replace the spring plate bushings (I got delrin). My question is - what can I do to minimize the pain of re-indexing the torsion bars? Is there a good way to mark them somehow? Thoughts or words of wisdom?

man that job is no fun - just the process of burning off the old rubber sucks enough

on top of that, when i was shipped my bushings it was without the instructions telling you about how you have to file out the inside of the casing to match the new bushing to the casing

i think clark's has a procedural memo on this whole torsion bar job though

flash,
I remember getting the old bushings off my 911. I assume this will be just as ugly. But I found heat is your friend.
