I have federal skis on my cub and the issue I have is there is play at the ski tip 1-2”. The cables are hooked to the front gear bolt and I know that pulls them into the center more so. I’ve researched this and some say it’s okay but I don’t like the idea of play or movement as it stems from the axle area.
I have some uhmw or Delrin rod same diameter as the pedestal. I’ve thought about milling that into a new bushing to try for the skis. I’m concerned with the fact the pedestal might not be perfectly round in the center and might not work. Also I loose some impact absorbing benefits from that rubber bushing.
If I do mill out the plastic do I still put a 4130 sleeve inside of just make the ID the size directly for my axle?
