OK, I'm replacing my front right axel spindle because the wheel bearing surface was pitted with rust and no longer true to round. �I have an old 3A frame and axels in our yard (much to my wife's displeasure) - and I thought ah-ha! �I can just pull off the spindle from this one and use it on my complete 3A - my own personal junk yard. �The spindles look the same and they both have the bronze flanged bushing on them. �The bushing on the replacement spindle looks OK but I thought I'd replace it anyway while I had it apart. �The replacement spindle came from a �Bendix axel, and the one it's going onto has Rezzepa axles
Two questions: First - I looked up the bronze flanged spindle bushing on the Wlacks site, it specifies that it this part is for Rezeppa and spicer axels only. �was there a difference in the bushings on the 3A bendix vs rezeppa? �They look the same.
Second, how do you get the old bushing out, and seat the new bushing? �t looks like a bushing puller with a slide hammer/side facing grips would be able to pull out the old one and I could tap the new on in place, however I'm thinking about letting a machine shop do it. �Thoughts?
Thanks
