I am restoring a 65 year old Case tractor and I've had to build up and turn down the clutch pedal shaft back to 1 1/16" diameter (where the pedal has worn it). I was driving by a JD dealership today, never been in the place before but I thought I'd check to see that maybe they had a 1 1/4" X 1/1/16" steel or bronze bushing that I might use after boring out the clutch pedal pivot. The guy stared at me like I was from another planet, or maybe I had a third eye in the middle of my forehead. He said he could only help me if I had a part number. After explaining what I was working on and what I needed he gave me the same response, part # or he couldn't do anything. I guess that's the way things are today, part number or nothing, at least in some places. Too bad things got this way, searching through a parts bin might have come up with something but he just didn't seem interested. Guess I'll make my own using some 1" pipe and make one myself.
