peterb Posted September 13, 2007 Report Share Posted September 13, 2007 Hi Martin, There are two shouldered washers or sleeves that are a tight fit into the swivel bush, they sometimes have a rough almost knurled type finish where they locate into the bush that prevents them from being rotated. They do come out ok using leverage with two screwdrivers, a bit at a time, don't try to twist them out. If you can't get started with a screwdriver, you can just see a gap inbetween the two sleeves that you can get at with a drift (small screwdriver) and start to tap the sleeve out with the housing supported across vice jaws. Bye, PeterB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
