SV: Poly Strut Rod Bushings (installing)

[Knud-Erik Holm <kebh@xxxxx>]

I use a heatblower to soften up the poly. And then the grease that come with
the bushing.

I would say clean up the hole a bit with a grinder on my drill.

I have poly bushings to go into my Valiant, and I have one of the poly strut

rod bushings installed, but it was a nightmare to get in.

Would it still work if I cut it in two? Or is there a way to soften the poly

material enough to squeeze it into its hole in the frame? Heat?

*Also, I read somewhere that the washers that go on either side of this 
bushing need to have the raised rim away from the bushing, rather than 
toward it, or premature wear would result. Any truth to this?


thanks,
