Re: FD Lens Bushing Repair - Here's a How To for the Canon FD 24mm f2.8

I have an old-FD  (breech lock) 24/2.8 where the MFD focus stop seems to be broken. The focus itself is smooth, and stops at infinity correctly, but at the MFD end it binds a bit past .3m, rather than stopping hard there.

Anyone know how much of the lens needs to be disassembled to get to the MFD stop? I'd rather not disassemble more than is needed.
