List,
That reminded me of doing a similar thing for the nylon bushings/inserts used
on the trunnion for my TR6 rebuild.....I found that the thin metal
washer/sleeves that slide onto the bushings and go between the thick metal
washer and the bushings wouldn't slide on easily if all pieces were at room
temp. These thin metal sleeves are easy to bend if you horse them on so I
froze the bushings and ***presto*** no problem.....ain't the laws of physics
grand!!??
