Well I got em in finally! Just plain didn't get around to it till thisafternoon. They were a tad too big (measuring error on my part) so I needed to take em down a bit. I ran a screw into them all the way to it kinda jammed against the head. Then I chucked it up in my drill, and mounted the drill in my vise. Turned it on, and used some 100 grit on it like a lathe

I would have used rougher paper if I had some... But it worked! Two or three sessions with the paper and it slid in with a little force. Perfect! Pulled it out and painted the inside of the bars with epoxy, then slid em in. I'll bold up the bar ends tomorrow!
Thanks again!!!
