Re: Pressing in A Arm bushings?

I had a piece of card board tube handy so here is the spacer in cardboard

You measue to the correct height and diameter (larger by half) so if its a 1.5" diameter bushing you need a 2.25" pipe or close.

Slice out a quarter to 1/3. closer to a 1/4 and spread it so it just easily forces past the bushing. You need to be able to remove it once the bushing is pressed in, so not to tight on the openning.

You slip it in and properly brace the botton of the arm ear and press away. You may have to pry it out but it will come out.
