"Manic-Mechanic" 1,266 #1 Posted May 25 I found some 1-3/8” copper ends with 1/4” hole in the center. Pressed a slot in the hole and the same on a small fender washer. Tacked new ring above from a piece of truck dip stick. Below a tack on the washer, then the rubber between. “Had water handy to prevent stinky rubber smoke!” 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
