Ampico Wind Motor Bushings Replacement
By Jon Page

I need to replace the crankshaft arms' bushings [of an Ampico grand
airmotor]. The bends do not allow removal. Do I have to cut a slot
on the long end, replace the bushing and fit in a new piece of wood?

Also, what is the original tubing length on both the drawer and stack
sides?
