My swivel axles in my 60 Bugeye are loose enough so that I am going to have to send them in to Apple Hydraulics to get them seviced. I want to powderpaint the parts before I send them in. Can someone tell me how to remove the bushings,spring,and dust tubes? Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Kevin; how loose are they? How much will it cost to redo them? If you are talking original drum hubs I have a pretty good set I may be induced to part with. Contact me at jjj@acsnet.com if interested.

Befor you do anything else, call Peter. New bushings are not expensive.
