Pilot bushing help.

Ironmike said

Pulled this pilot bushing out of a scrapped Eagle crank. I'm running the bearing type in my Scat, but would love to find this bushing type.

Haven't been able to find anything but bearing type for aftermarket cranks. Anyone know where I could find one of these?

Yeah, it was a ***** to get out.View attachment 1715132185 View attachment 1715132186

I just removed an outer bushing like that from my crank. I drilled two holes on either side and threaded in a pair of bolts to pop it out. There is nothing to grab on to otherwise. It is made of a soft steel or something, and that made it easy to tell when I got to the crank(which the bit didn't even scratch).

My machinist had popped out the roller bearing that goes with it, and thought that was an end to it. The needle bearings insert has nearly the same outside diameter as the stock Mopar solid bushing.

In your case, It looks like someone removed the roller bearing insert and then pounded a stock style bushing in its place.

The assembly is available off the shelf at nearly every auto parts store for a 90's Dakota and several other Mopars for around $20.
