Has anyone had any issues with the piston rod bush on single cylinder.
The one that came with my kit will not fit in the recess on the cylinder rear plate, the diameter of the bush is too big.
Also if it did fit there would be no room for gland packing as it the same depth as the recess.

Thanks
Barry

Spoke to Steve about this as well this morning, the cover I have is cast, so no need for the bush. But he is sending me another cover as per my other thread.
