Sorry for ask. How much you pay for that grill? I always try to found one.
I picked it up for $400 shipped. Has 2 small cracks but they can't be seen when the hood is closed. I know there's another one for sale for I think 350 with a few chips.
Was that towards me? Haha. I used 1000 grit then 2000 to wet sand followed by Plast-X with a buffing ball. Turned out way better than I had initially thought.
Installed my Figgs Castor Arm bushings yesterday.
Didn't want to invest in a press so I took the "jig saw" route.
It wasn't to difficult. Once you remove the rubber core of the old bushing out (Drill pilot entry hole with drill bit; then use a rough-cut jigsaw blade to cut the rubber out) just take a fine metal jig saw blade and cut two slits in the bushing outer metal ring. Then just push it out with a hammer and screw driver.
Rented a bushing press tool from Advanced Auto and pushed the new Figgs bushing in smooth as butt'a.
I thought putting the arms back in would be a pita, but it's pretty much uneventful.
Time: about three hours mostly goofing around. Once you do one side, you'll complete the other in half the time 'cuz you won't have to think as much.
