Hello guys! Has anyone fixed their sloppy kicker? I was thinking of if there is someway of doing it. Maybe bore it out and put a new bronze bushing in or something like that. Mine starts to rattle on the pipe in a near future..

Get an old hose clamp, cut the length for the diameter, insert, done.

Not that I would do this to mine, however.....

Go ahead and invest in a lathe.
They'll be gone sooner or later!
