Rear shock absorber bushes

<< < (2/2)

Bryanj:
They are called "metallastic" bushes and worst case scenario is to burn out the rubber and carefully cut the outer with a hacksaw blade.
For insertion make sure inner of hole in swingarm is supperclean and polish outer of new bush lightly with fine wet and dry then lightly greas to aid sliding in.

Thanks all - cleaning/lubricating the hole in the swinging arm, and using a bolt with washers to pull in the inserts worked a treat.  Bushes now in place  :)

Phantom Rider:
Hi Oddjob - I used that technique to fit swinging arm bushes.  Worked a treat!!
