I'm at the stage where I need to replace the leaf spring bushes on my 88" sIIa within the next few months.
I have 2 questions:
1. I see on the inter web there are instructions on how to make a bush press tool to remove/insert bushes - is a commercial version available at a reasonable cost somewhere?
2. Does anyone have any recommendations as to whether to replace with an original rubber bush or a polly bush? I've heard nightmares about squeaking polly bushes. I've also seen you can get a polly bush with a built in grease nipple. Then I've also heard that the original rubber gives a better ride... not sure which way to go...
Cheers,
Warren.
