As many of us I am retired and home bound. My wife fell 3 years ago and broke her neck. My full time job is her care. I have moved most of my tools home after closing my business. Now I do only things for my good friends. In my 55 years my experience covered everything from making cotton strings to air planes. I was the go ask Tom where ever I worked.
My retired school teacher friend is trying to make a living doing what he taught his students, His nursery is struggling and when something breaks I have an opportunity.
I think the Lord Jesus for that opportunity!
His Kubota started began to start dragging. "Turn slow' What and opportunity to see inside that thing. The armature had just began to drag and the only to options are,
1. Buy another new one at $200.00 to $600.00. 2. Take it to a rebuild shop and get in line and they fix everything with parts that are out of the box. Their box didn't have parts for this model. 3. Find bushings that have the correct ID and work from there. In less than 2 hours they fit the housings. Then came the nut challenge.
The starter worked perfect!
Cost 2 bushings @ 2.50 each, 2 Nuts @ $.40 each and one dab of grease.
Oh on removing the old bushings. Screw a Tap in the bushing and it will slide right out.
