Has anyone fitted one?
Bought one off Roy,it nedds to be "staked" onto the rack.Just cant see how to do this and make the bush a permanant thing.
I have tried what Roy said to do but this just doesnt seem to work.
I think a quick zap with a mig would do the job,but just want to see if anyone has any other ideas.
Ta.

Done several but not without plenty of trouble. The reproduction rings vary a lot in interal diameter. You will find 2 types most common is the ring secured with a rivet, others not so common are the staked.
In most cases I fit them using a counter sunk screw secured with a nut + 2 ugly welding spots on the back. Job done

Hi Pete,thanks for the reply.
The ring I took off was riveted on,but the new one has no hole for a rivet and has to be "staked" on.
I think a blob of weld should do the job at the back of the ring(opposite the holes for the pins).
Rick P said that was the thing to do so I think I will go with that.
Cant see how staking or any other way apart from a blob of weld will do.
Unless someone has another idea.

Dave,
if a replacement guide/sliding bush is loose on the rack, I pack it out with an old feeler gauge then use 3 dots of weld on each side to hold it in place.
Selective assembly applies when choosing the thickness of feeler gauge to use, of course...

ken.

as usual brilliant advice ken

Thanks Ken and Rick.
The bush will be blobed today,back on the van tonight
