Here is my opinion on the subject for what it is worth.
The bushes should be reamed to size once fitted to the uprignt and the pin should be a very firm thumb push through both bushes. If you find the pin pushes through one or other easily and tightens up when you try to push it through both then at least one of the bushes has been reamed at an angle to the other and concequentley wear will occur very quickly thus allowing play to appear. Thus reaming and making sure that the process ensures that both bushes are parallel to each other is vitaly important. The other trick is to get the bottom sealing plug to do just that, seal. I have tried almost everything and have found that braising the plug in place is as good as any. But you have to be quick to do it to prevent heat sink and quick to cool it.

Judging from the price, I might be interested in buying a pair as well.

They look great with the 2nd nipple. Not fitted as yet.
Job for weekend ;)
Fitted. Perfect job. Good price. Double nipples work great. Cheers to seller.

That is great news. Did you get it greased straightaway? If so, did it get into the mechanism as it should? Please let us know how it performs in the next few weeks. Sorry for the questions. I have another Bis which I am restoring. I have yet to test the stub axles for play. The seller could be another useful source of reconditioned stub axles.

I have emailed the seller previously re quality of the stub axles. He does not do it himself, though he can guarantee the work and does have a refund/return policy.

Asked my Polish friend at work and she says her Husband has an account, she said he will contact the seller and buy me a pair, when they arrive then I pay!

Great!
