Title: K-Mag Bushing ?
Post by: Gcg2 on May 25, 2019, 01:59:46 PM

Hey guys, i've got a 70's K-Mag and the front bushing is loose and spins but I can't get it out. It has moved out about an 1/8 but won't go any further just spins. I'd like to get it out so I can replace it. If anybody can help let me know. Thank you..

I believe I’d thread a bolt into the bushing and heat the bolt with a propane torch.  It’s likely some epoxy holding the insert in.  The heat will soften the epoxy maybe
