[C38] Pedestal throttle/transmission bushings

[Pierre Patino]

Hello again

Back in 2015 I wrote about my need to replace the Delrin bushings in the
pedestal since it was getting harder to shift the transmission and to
throttle the engine. Like an idiot I forgot where I got the replacements so
I had to start the search again (found: Edson part number 960-A-125 ). So
they basically last about five-six years. Is that  normal or am I missing a
maintenance step? No amount of lubricant made a difference when I took the
levers apart. It also took a fair amount of convincing to get the shafts
out (

).
Expected behavior?

Thanks
