I must start by saying that installing the new bushing was a royal pain in the ass....in fact.....I fuct it up a little....but not enough to make it unusable.

 

Getting the old one out was easy.....needed the help of my little friend.......

This is how I got the new bushings into the Idler.....it took a LOT of force to jam these fuckers in....so much they split the wood I was using twice....

Had to do some minor grinding to shorten the new sleeve.....

No matter what I did to keep this thing straight...it kept wanting to kink....on top of that....it just started shredding the bushing.....eventually breaking it....
