K75 pilot bearing
« on: January 03, 2020, 08:44:45 PM »
I may need a new pilot bearing (bushing actually).  the brass thing that goes in end of crankshaft.  neither i nor the dealer can find it in the parts fiche and dealer tech can't remember ever changing one.  anyone know the part number or a source for these things?

If you can't find one it could be easily made up out of phosphor bronze by any body competent on a lathe.
