i always put copper slip on the face of the hub etc as sitting kicking a wheel for a while to get it off gets annoying.

Steve no offence but you are so bloody boring, you don't want to modify it so instead you just bang on about clean arches.

ok you see that swing bit that iv painted black in the pic?
going into the end of that is a rod, whats stops the rod simply spinning is splines inside and notchs on the steel rod, this rod is joined to the other arm on the other side.
when pressure is applied on the swing arm the rod twists then springs back when the pressure is released
