Actually Rich, we have gone out of our way to keep as much of the original as we possibly can. The eccentrics could possibly have been saved if we would have either bushed, babbited, or did extensive boring on the straps. Since the straps are far more complicated, bushing is not a great idea, and babbiting has its issues, we decided to replace the eccentrics as being the least invasive procedure with the probability of the best results.
