Thank you Lawn Slave i had thought about drilling them out going to try that this arvo, just going to replace them with whatever is laying around.
I was wondering does anyone know if the wheel bushes are available new, will i have to find some secondhand ones. [only really need one as it wasnt there when i took the wheel off] otherwise i have some bearing wheels i can put on [the ones from the other mower in pics] just dont like the look of em, they dont suit this mower
