If you find an elongated hole it is an easy fix. Weld a washer to the outside. Where you want the shaft to be, and the fill in the back side with a bit of weld. Next drill out the hole, problem solved.
You can also machine out a piece that fits into the hub, machine the hub, and then weld the assembly. Or you can buy Chris pieces and do it right Tangerine Racing. As far as bushing goes I would upgrade all my stuff to needles if someone would produce them again. Run Elephant Poly Bronze on the EG build and Rebel Racing is going on the 914-6. I find as long as the bushings are not binding the do not add to the harness of the ride. |
