[QUOTE="Tom Gaynor, post: 14456, member: 4034"] At 70,000 miles I'd expect the liners to be little more than a light push fit in the muffs, which it is widely accepted lose their grip with age. Yes, quite. It would be worth your while therefore to check the fit of the liner in the muff before making your decision. It ought to be 0.006 interference. (A friend decided that he needed a new liner in his Comet. The guy who was going to fit it put the Comet barrel on the table, and started to light the gas axe to heat the muff to make sure it was necessary. Before he struck the match there was a "clonk" as the muff slid off the liner. It was necessary. Gravitational anomalies were not suspected. ) [/QUOTE]
