Can anyone tell me of a simple method for replacing the little end (wrist pin ) bush please?

Hiya Chankly, I am going to have a crack at your method on the weekend, however, the rest of the bike is all together, I just pulled the head and barrell off for something to do in the Man Cave on Friday night What do you think of the response from Vibrac below? (which will now be above....you know what I mean).An old blacktracker showed me this method. Get a 1/2" diameter bolt about 3.5" long and a heavy plain washer. Get a socket deep enough to hold the old bush and just wide enough to bear on the con-rod eye. Place washer and new bush under bolt head put bolt through small end. Place socket over other end of small end bush, bearing on the con-rod eye. Fit nut and screw down, being careful to centralise new bush, which pushes old bush out. Then you need to take it to a good engineer to line-bore it parallel to the big-end after cheking the rod for twist, bend and cracks. How did the seat foam go?
