I needed to change my rear shift bushing for my side shift transaxle. The last time I installed my drive assembly I used some shrink tube around the outer surface of the busing to tighten it up in the hole through the shift console. Even though I used the shrink tube it was still loose on the outer surface and even looser on the inside hole. Here's a picture showing the space with a pick tool.
 Heres a picture of the band aid repair.  And the shrink tube.  And the real reason I used the shrink tube. The bushing was cracked.  |

Cool!
I bet you were looking for an excuse to use your safety wire pliers. I try to use my cool specialty tools whenever I can. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
