<P>Personally, I have yet to find a set of stock shanks that I havent =

able to improve substantially by repinning. And secondly, when I order =
shanks
from Renner I specify that no graphite is to be used in the bushing =

Sometimes I have to order from an alternate manufacturer because of =
this. I
like most everything Renner makes, but I wish somebody would let them =

that graphite in bushings is not such a good idea.... especially when =
there is
a great alternative.
