See attached. It's #3 on the diagram.

1sttimer said:Well I've got one vote for leaving them in an another for removing them... :-\
1sttimer said:It's only 45 bucks to PC the hub so I'm thinking about leaving about leaving them in. I was just worried about ruining the hub...two different materials. I imagine the sheath around the bushing is carbon steel and the hub is aluminum...different thermal expansion factors and whatnot when baked.
AlphaDogChoppers said:Cool technique. I would tend to use a large screw extractor and try to twist them out, or thread a lag screw into them and use a slide hammer.
