OK - I am a slow learner with ADD and everything.
Do you put the white bushing on the ball and then press the outer ring of the metal piece on? Is that the order? I also understand you put the white bushing in boiling water for ?? 10 minutes? Or do you C Clamp the white piece into the metal drop bar and then press that contraption onto the ball? Thanks for any help! |

QUOTE A famous 914 mechanic I know, drills a tiny hole through the back of the bushing and then uses a vise to squeeze it into place... The hole would aide in easing the fitting on the ball of the bar or the ball of the lower shock bolt. Hard to get a 914 on a vise. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |
