SNX-C02

I think that is the right page reference. Anyway, the four 5/8" ID 3/4" OD bronze bushings are supposed to press into the weldment that holds the sticks. Mine drop in. How can I line bore them if they spin in the tube? Should I bond them in? Duct tape?

Bryan,

It's no 150....you're supposed to use gorilla tape.

It's been a few years Bryan but I'm fairly certain I just glued mine in place with epoxy. They've never moved since I installed them!
