He said they were the same for decades with only one choice, ordered it and it isn't even close. From measuring the shaft and casting I figure the bushing should be around a .515-.52 ID and .61-.615 OD. the Part number 4200 they sold me is about a .51 OD. (even smaller than the actual shaft) The old bushing I pulled out was made with a split and kind of like ears on the end to retain it in place. The starter appears to be like the pictures of being correct as the foot stomp was changed a few years later, so I think it is original. Suggestions?
