Subject:westy swivel seat lower bushings

Hi,

I think a lot of westy owners have some sort of issue with the swivel
seats... either too tight, or too loose, or hard to swivel.

there is a thread on the samba that explores this issue, and the one
of the last entries is gold, a link to a photo essay (UK club 80-90)
on how to take apart assembly, clean, and install new plastic slider
bits (which seem to be NLA so you have to make your own)
