87 Ram 50, 2.6, A/T AW372
Transmission rear seal is leaking. Bushing is worn out by .025 and needs replaced. Found a seal but i CAN NOT find a Bushing to save my life. Yoke measures 1.560 with no worn spots. Removed current bushing.
Bushing I need:
ID 1.562-1.565
OD 1.727
Length 1.365
WIT transmission doesn't have it, all the big stores don't stock it, I know I can not be the only person that has needed this. I'm about to take it to the local transmission shop, Summit transmission in Fort Wayne and see if they can cross reference it.

Disregard. I bought some bearing bronze and made one. Fit perfect. I even cut an oil groove into it on the lathe. Drilled 2 holes where the notches are in the tail housing so oil can ride in there. I feel much better about it.
BUT I did locate a company that makes them. Omega Machine out of Cali.
