Bushings for Bearings

On most makes Of cars the bush
ings for bearings are made Of anti
friction metal. The advantage Of
using soft metals is that If the bear
ing became too tight no injury would
be done to the shaft around which
the bushing was fitted, the bushing
taking all the wear. Another reason
is that If there were several high
spots on the bushing surface, causing
increasing beat at those points. the
bushing would not be SO apt to seize.
but would yield. producing a more
even surface.
