I have rebuilt them many times and have never needed to replace the core =
plugs. They are dimpled in place and when you remove the dimple the core =
plug comes out and you just reinstall the core plug and dimple it back =
in. I also have never worked on one that is seized. The angle drives I =
have rebuilt only needed to have the internal flexible cable replaced. I =
have used an old speedo cable and shape the ends to fit with a grinder.
