Thanks I will watch for the bushing and/or the humped cover on back. You wouldn't happen to know where there is a pic of the bushin verses the bearing. So I know what I am looking at? Maybe a pic of the humped cover, although I am sure I can figure that one out. I am trying to but one with the exact p/n. I feel good about that one. the other I don't have a pic or p/n yet so we are in discussions. Thanx Tim

Tim you never cease to amaze me. fast and accurate. I couldn't get the bushing to open yet but I will keep tryin'. Good pics thanx. Do you think it is necessary to have the buyer pull off the cap and send me a pic first? I guess it all depends on how comfortable I am with the seller. Why did they go to a bushing it seems that the roller bearing would wear better. Oh afterthought I guess the bushing has less chance of play. Sounds like I am answering my own questions. Am I correct?

I don't really know. i Like bearings better than bushings but I have never seen either fail.

Tim that is the one with the bearings. I agree with you it seems bearings last longer. But I guess if the bushing out lasts the pistons it really doesn't matter which you put in there. Huh?

oops must have pasted the wrong link. You get the picture any way. the bushing will just have a flat large round peice of steel where the bearing would sit with a large diameter bushing along the outer edge.
