I need to make up a couple of the T/C rod rubber bushing locator-flange thingys,  can anyone tell me what the diameter of the central hole is? It is somewhere between 13-20mm.

Thanks,

 

I just measured mine and got 20.63mm.

So I made up a two piece press on the lathe for shaping the T/C rod bushing collars, I thought at first my big vise would do the job but then ended up with the press on the anvil using a sledge as a hammer. The blanks are 16ga sheet metal, same as the originals.

If anyone has a need I can punch out a few more, start to finish, about an hour to make 2

 

 

Dude!!!!

That is super cool.

Nice work. Makes you wonder how you managed to live all those years without a lathe, right?
