((photo by arisaka of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=395586&page=16))^9/16 UNF high tensile bolt with stepped collars \\ turned to fit loosely in the new bush, and slightly \\ smaller than the outside diameter and pulled the \\ old bushes out and the new ones in. Make sure \\ the chamfered end of the bushing goes in first.

+ | |Homemade valve guide drift, old guides and valves. (And legendary BFH, standard HD factory fix everything \\ tool, 2LB) The drift is slightly smaller than the hole in the smaller exhaust guide and stepped up to slightly \\ smaller than the part of the guide that fits in the head so it can knock the old guides out. ((photos by Hopper of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=395586&page=2))|| | ||
+ | |Wooden jig to hold head while working on it, changing guides etc. The valve stems and springs sit in the \\ slot when you turn head over. Piece of wood at the end means the intake stub bears against it when \\ knocking in the new guide and does not get banged up against hard objects.((Hopper of the XLFORUM http://xlforum.net/forums/showthread.php?t=395586&page=2))|| | ||
