Hi all,
I'm doing my trailing arms bushings today (poly) and knowing they have to be reamed for the shaft so I grabbed a brake/cylinder honer I had handy and started boring the bushing (like what I'd seen in threads here at World.) Unfortunately I'll grow old a die before this method gets me anywhere. Simply put, it's not cutting it (or hardly). I saw in a thread that Eric with PMB now uses a small 3X1 barrel sander to get this work done (like this one http://www.mcmaster.com/#rubber-drums/=qlel82) and so I guess I'll go ahead and order one along with a bunch of sanding bands...but even then, I've heard the task can be a rather long one. Anyone have experience with this job and have a tool recommendation to cut this material using garage type tools (drill)? |
