My 350 project
royhall:
I usually use two large washers with some thread bar and nuts to seal the ends. If there's a grease nipple hole I screw in and old nipple that's been powder coated a few times already. Give it all a good clean out after with paraffin and compressed air. Not had a problem so far.

To be honest I hadn't thought of that, must of been having a blond moment.
Mind you I like Roy's suggestion for protecting them. I'll have to speak to the company carrying out the work to see if they want them removed.
I suppose if they do have to come out it's not a bad thing as new ones wouldn't do it any harm.
Cheers for all your hints and tips guys, always appreciated.

Lobo:
Tim,
Given the effort involved & the size of your project you'd be kicking yourself down the track for the want of separating the swing arm to give a better paint job + thence 'peace of mind' new (inexpensive) bushes.
Just my thoughts,
Simon
