Parts Replacement And Testing: Bushings

In event of excessive wear or damage, remove old bushings with suitable mandrel or extractor. Ensure that new porous bronze bushings have been soaked in light engine oil for at least 24 hours and press into position. Fit new bushing using highly polished mandrel 0.0005" (0.013 mm) larger than diameter of shaft.

NOTE: Do NOT ream bushing after fitting due to possible damage to porosity of new bearing.
