Reply to "transmission bronze oil lite pilot bushing"

bosswrenchMember

Besides the good advice from George, take a magnet with you when shopping for sintered-bronze pilot bushings. There are THREE different types and the correct one, the all-bronze one, may be hard to locate. The others are adulterated with so much iron powder that they are MAGNETIC. Such bushings will scar up the end of your $2800 clutch input shaft which really cannot be repaired. If a non-magnetic bronze bushing cannot be located and you have access to a lathe, one for a Chevy V8 from Lakewood Industries will fit but needs a 1/2" thick precision machined adapter ring, as the Chev part is too small in the OD as-stock to fit a Ford crankshaft. The ID is correct for a ZF input nose, however. The Chev bushing will be a press-fit into the ring while the ring will be a press-fit into the Ford crank
