Swinging arm bushes
Bryanj:
Dave, its only the later ones with a rubber seal, early ones the seal is the felt ring, i think i still used the caps with the bronze bushings though
SteveW:
Mine had the felt seals, I don’t need them do I?
Nurse Julie:
You don't use the felt with the bronze bushes, just the end cap.

I've been hanging around 400/4’s for too long Bryan, I thought looking at the parts diagram the end caps were the same as those on a 400. Every day is a school day on the forum👍
Mike_Berkshire:
Old bushes knocked out today. They were as Julie described: a sort of Bakelite material, definitely not metal. I concocted a tool to knock them out made of a length of M10 studding. Worked a treat. When it comes time to put the arm back in the frame I’m probably going to need some help. Looking at the parts diagram I don’t recall there being that many spacers and washers etc when I took it apart. Everything that came off was bagged up however,
