I just put the arms in a press and pushed the bushings out. They peeled right off with enough pressure, and I didn't piss off my neighbors by floating little bits of burned rubber into their pool. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
When you reassemble and you use delrin bushings, test fit them into the brackets, and slide them over the arms. They should move freely without lubrication. IF they don't ream them until they do. Don't check them without the outside metal collars, the installation into the collars will make the hole in the center smaller. BTDT. |
