Looks like its just snap rings that hold the bushings in place

There 42.99 for alum shaft. I'm guessing I went through 6 of them last year in about 25 nights. The need to clean them never comes up. lol
Some are stuck when new, I always clamp them in a vise and grease/rotate them a bunch to get them moving free.
