One thing to be aware Sticky, is that the original bush is a jolly tight fit in the ram eye, hence needing mandrels or a press to do the job...

I turned up one of the mandrels I use on the lathe but if you have a good assortment of sockets and a length of threaded bar and thick washers you'll be fine...
