I'm in the process of installing my new poly-bronz bushings and the directions say that if the fit is too loose to use urethane adhesive caulk. While at the local hardware store I could only find polyurethane caulk. will this work?
Thanks |

If these are what I think they are, they are pretty pricey bronze bushings offered from a particular specialist as a set. I can see how there might be a fit issue with parts at your end since they have no control over that. But the machined bushings and retainers are made to their specs and should fit each other perfectly without any added goo. Maybe I have this wrong and the fit is between the existing 914 clamps and the parts? |
