I prefer  new parts whenever feasible.  However, there are those times in an
old  piano when rebushing might be the appropriate thing to do.   Perhaps
rebushing is also temporary, as Bob Davis said, but if it's still  OK after
25 years, and mine have been, I don't call that "temporary".   If a flange
is saturated with tallow, or some other goop that someone has  soaked it
with in trying to lubricate it, you can bet your boots I'm not  even going
to try to rebush it.

   The first time I tried this on an ! 927 L The shanks were  siezed again 
one year later. I soaked the shanks in tolulene before rebushing to  leech  out 
the goo but apparently that wasn't enuogh. To each his own  experience.
