Thanks Bob. Great bit of information I did not know about. Probably saved me some cussing!

Granger is a good source of bushings if you're having trouble finding them.

McMaster Carr should have oil-filled bushings. I get mine from them. Ted

Thanks Ted. Forgot about them.

Frank, I don't ever use a bushing drum. I got tired of hearing them howl. I use 10T drums with needle bearings. Even with the 4" rear wheels on the n1ke I have no trouble getting the ratios I need. My converted saw clutch on the XP Homelite uses a bushing, and I got these from McMaster, though it was several years ago. TJ
