My H had a wobbly front end (Schwartz wide front). I discovered the bushings in the trunions were worn. Replacing the bushings (and tie rods since it was all apart) fixed the 5th gear wobble.
The replacement bushings from A&I were steel. The original bushings were brass.
I had always heard that if you run two hard materials together, you will get more wear on both parts, as compared to one hard and one soft. Examples: rod bearing and crankshaft or Amal Carb slides and bodies.
What do you think ? Should I find brass bushings and replace the steel ones ?
Thanks
