Got a new seat pivot shaft and bushings for an EZ Rider seat on my F30. The bushings had long since disappeared. How on earth does one put this thing back together? The bushings (tapered end goes toward tube, right?) will not even begin to start to go inside tube where seat pivots. I tried dish soap, silicone grease, but no luck. How are the bushings supposed to fit? Are they supposed to fit part way into the tube, or somehow squeezed together to fit into the outside bracket where the bolts on each end. The bushings are simply too big for the pivot hole. Someone must have an answer. BTW, as far as I can tell, the pivot shaft and bushings must be assembled at the same time. Bushings cannot be put in first. Any ideas welcomed, and sorry for long post. I guess I'm venting a bit.
