Thanks! Yes I planned to use that tool, good to hear that one works. A little concerned over pulling the bushing, I see some folks making a tool from a carriage bolt. Think I'll see if the local auto parts places have a bushing tool that they loan out. Pondering just using the bushing that's in it, scratches and all as they don't look bad and it doesn't wobble so I don't think it's too worn. I'm a bit worried about dropping parts of the old bushing pulling it out.....
I may have found a melonized gear, just waiting to see if it really is.
