brake pedal bushing

[DollyDodge]

Anybody know where I can get a brake pedal bushing for my B2C. Roberts doesn't have them and VPW doesn't have them right now either.

HI yes they do. I ordered them 2/6/12 RUSS ABELL

Any good machine shop can make a bushing for you.

took mine in and it cost me a whole $20 at the "local" old car guy YoungEd fixed me up with.

Thanks for the info. Trouble with where I live is there is only one real machine shop and he doesn't like to do things like bushings, he has my engine, but refers folks to another guy here in town that works in his garage. He did the sleeve for my clutch pedal and doesn't want to work on another pedal. He said he would replace the bushing if I could get one. I will try the person mentioned in post. I live bout 4 hours from any sizable town. It is just difficult sometimes to get things done that would be easy in a larger town,

Dolly Dodge;

If it makes you feel any better......I live in the big city (LA area)....and trust me it isn't any easier getting things you want done here.

Even simple little things like Dorman lug studs.

I ordered these two weeks ago.....

and they won't arrive for another week ????

OMG!

Yes we have more choices than you here.....but not many are all that good.

I am not sure what has happened to this country......but it sure ain't the place it used to be.

I have viewed several of your posts & photos with envy....... Man do those lonesome country roads look good.....

I sometimes get frustrated with the lack of local services, but I love those lonely roads more. I love it up here

[Jeff Balazs]

Yes....believe me I know about the frustration. Not sure which form is worse....

few options....or many.

When I do get my truck done....which is a long .... ...long way off....I plan on a taking a "walkabout" with it up north via Coast Hwy. Big Sur - Smith River...and wind up with a visit to an old BritBike buddy who retired near Newport Oregon.

I was planning on crossing over to 395 for the trip back....so maybe I can stop and visit with the legendary Dolly on the way home?

That is of course if I ever get her done..................................

Which place did you order them from, I wasn't clear

Both Roberts and VPN told me last week they didn't have any, so I am confused. Glad yours fit

I can't believe the things people took to the air in.

Thanks for the clarification on the VPW

[John-T-53]

Here's some VPW #s...they came through for me.

NOS clutch fork bushings: Part #'s CC306770 and 50519. I used them for the bellhousing holes but could also be adapted for the brake pedal - might require 2 kits.

NOS Power Wagon clutch fork, part # 561537 (same as B-Series)
