Hey folks, are all the bushing kits to rebuild our pedal clusters the same? There are a bunch on Ebay.

I'd recommend Eric's pre-built ones, but the only thing I know to look out for in the rebuild kits is the roll pin for the clutch pedal. Reuse your old one. But I've bought kits from a few different places and haven't noticed any issues. Some of the newer kits even come with what appears to be a suitable roll in replacement (lots of winds/thickness).

I've bought mine from GPR, never had any problems with the kits, only problems getting the rusty arms off the shaft.

I think there's basically one company supplying them now. That being said, a customer sent in a Weltmesiter kit and it was slightly different. It had a nylon clutch clevis pin bushing.
What are the eBay kits going for? |
