Pete,
Well the bushing is a bit thicker than the original fingers so the clamp
goes on the bushing a bit tight, but I put the knob on tonight and it
feels fine. I'll keep turning it every day and see how it holds up until
it breaks or I get bored. Both my RXs are pretty smooth on the KC
change. I should probably put it on the MC shaft. The clamp tightens
down just fine. If the epoxy doesn't hold up, I can always go back in
and try the Locktite super glue. The fit of the bushing in the casting
was a loose sliding fit, being drilled by hand it was tighter at the
bottom than at the top. If it were 'reamed' I'm sure there could be a
very close fit, but it would have to be machine done. I think it's an
acceptable fix for the price and done at home. Right now it feels like
it's going to hold up.
Dave
