Also if you do end up turning down the 69 shafts you might try to find a third stub shaft to have a spare since they would be special pieces at that point, have them all turned down at once... But I would'nt worry about having the shafts turned down, Still Plenty strong!
I guess the bronze bushing did not fit in the 72 spindle?

The guy said that turning the axles down would be an easier option so I'm taking them in tomorrow. Thanks for the info on the teflon bushings and everything else on this subject. Great stuff!
