I would be very surprised to see the front bushing worn, It does not spin all that much and its submerged in oil.


I hope it doesn't spin at all. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

It's not the purtyest I've ever seen - it's probably ok, given the minimal use I'll put on it. I'll try to clean it and get a picture of it tomorrow. A closer look shows wear in 2 spots that I can see so far. The yoke's fine with only light scoring.

It's probably caused by whatever caused the glob o' goo I found on the drain plug (real fine paste stuff). I changed the oil before going to CO, so there must be something breaking down somewhere in the assembly - just haven't found it yet. Maybe when I get all of the bearings out something will stand up and shout at me. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
