Brass bushings for transfer case levers

Post by m37jarhead »

I've taken apart the transfer case levers and see that the brass bushings are worn pretty thin. Anyone have a source for replacement bushings?

Quickest most painless thing to do is get a Bunting or Isostatic bronze bushing from any Bearing Distributor or McMaster Carr. For this app. you can use the sintered bronze (oilite) as they are less money. I don't recall the size I used on mine. :)
