Default Bearings!@#$%^&*()

Has anyone changed out the bushings for bearings on there CC? Well I did tonight and boy what a PITA!! Everything went smooth but the Spur gears, The bearings went in fine but the tiny arse c-clip ended up snapping in half Now this would not be a bad situation if I lived somewhere but here! So unless Home depot has this tiny arse c-clip im going to have to drive 50 miles to the closest HS, or order a new one
The bushings are a little slimmer then the bearings so coming off is not a problem. If you are in the process of changing to bearings get the tiniest needle nose pliers out there.

Sorry I had to vent....


Thanks for listening and goodnight
