around here, most drill thru the side of the bushing, on either end of a diameter, and then shatter the rest of the bushing so it comes out in pieces....
Even the Sherwood tech data I have is silent on the removal of the bushing....they pretty well cover the installation but don't say anything on the extraction process...
I agree when putting them in..once moving dont stop. I cracked a brand new one stopping halfway installed. I was talking about taking them out with the grease.
guys, any tips on how to press in the bushing without a fancy slide hammer? like a piece of pvc or socket wrench socket or something? Also, do I grease it first? With what.... oh, and the new impeller, what do I grease that with, if anything? And finally, what about the gasket? treat with anything? Sorry for all the dumb questions. It's my first rebuild.
