I see the bushings in the 3ww shop.....whats the plus side of using them, I assume they replace the metal bearing sleves...are theese something I want to add?


Thanks.

UHMW (ultra high molecular weight) or Oil impregnated (Rulon I think) work great.

No lubrication and easily changed in years to come.....

I thought they were delrin? Either way I used them in my 200x on my westcoast swingarm. Took about 5 minutes to install with a little grease and a deadblow hammer. They have worked well so far and I will be buying a set for my 250r when the time comes.

When you install them, do you remove the inner bearing sleve?

Yes, those take the place of everything.
