Greetings,
 
       Getting the old ones off is the worst part of the job. It can be a 
real clock buster, I remove key sticks and vaccuum as well as any pieces that 
fell down to the bottom board.(chewing even more time)  They're brittle and 
they crack off and fly.

Beware of adjusting these old rubber baby buggy bumpers.  If you do manage 
to adjust them, you may cause the keystick to bind.  The rubber becomes hard 
(duh!), and takes a set of the forks on the keystick.  The forks aren’t 
going to  be at right angles to the sticker wire.  So, when you turn the 
button, the angle will be different and force the keystick to one side, making new 
sticking keys where there were none before.  DAMHIK.
