I am going to be dropping off my crank to have it drilled for the pilot bushing. Should I have it drilled to the factory sized bushing or should I have it drilled for a roller bushing? I would like to use a bushing that is readily available at local parts stores if at all possible. If I remember correctly the last time I bought a bushing I had to order it from year one and I don’t want to deal with that again. Any recommendations are appreciated thanks.

I think the ball bearing bushing and the bronze bushing drill to the same size. No personal experience but I have read some folks have had cases of the ball bearing bushing coming apart and recommended the bronze bushing. I am sure others with some experience will speak up.

Auto Zone has them in stock, if not they can order it... I used the bronze.

The original factory bearing IS a roller bearing.
