I have installed many......Rick McLeod has new ones at Sunbeam
Specialties.....remove the old rubber bushings by whatever means
works......then dip the new bushing in oil and press it into the steering
cross bar in a vice...then press the center stud/fixed washer through the
hole in the bushing utilizing the vice and a socket or a press if
available...works like a charm!!
