Fitting swinging arm bushes

(1/3) > >>

Phantom Rider:
Hi All

I've just received some swinging arm bushes from "Frank" - are there any techniques/tricks required to fit these?

Thanks

Steve

Nurse Julie:
Soaking them in oil for 24 hours prior to fitting can help them last longer. Make sure they are going in the hole straight and the last ones i fitted, I used a flat piece of timber and a hammer and just hit them home.

paul G:
What type/material are they ;)

Good point Paul. I'm assuming if they are from Frank, they are the bronze bushes.

Phantom Rider:
Thanks.  They are the "normal" ones from Frank, and so I believe they are brass (they look like brass!).

I did think that they would need to be "persuaded" to fit - but thought it wise to check first!!

I will soak them overnight in oil as suggested.
