Title: Removing the brass bushings from the right axel housing shaft eyes
Post by: CJHenderson on August 24, 2018, 10:20:43

I'm down to replacing the brass bushings from the right axel housing shaft eyelets. My problem being the housing shape that makes it easy to knock them out of alignment. Should I just use a dermal tool to cut a groove in them to weaken them or to heat the eyes?

I use a hack saw to cut through the bushing and then knock them out after that.

Thanks Benz Dr. used you suggestion, worked great. But since I have no press I had to pounder on how to install the new one, then when looking at the bottom of my beer it cam to me. This is my version of a press.  8)
