Chevrolet C60s - Front Wheel "shimmy"

[Andy Beevers]

Hi Lynn,
Yes the swivel hubs have been completely stripped down, had the shafts out, replaced some wheel bearings as required. the preload on the hubs has been set to the requested specification, interesting if you go over the specification the hub starts to distort.

I have located bronze bushes and will order them Monday and an adjustable reamer, the manual gives a clearance of 2-8 thou.

I am thinking the bushes I have been supplied are not correct, steel on steel is not my first choice, = rust!

the sizes of bronze bush are on the shelf, then a gentle ream, bit of grease, perfick.
