If it's the split nylon bushing try American Power Sports. W.W. Grainger, and Mc Master Carr, have all sorts of that stuff too.

Hi John-
Dean Seavers posted this little gem a while back regarding the McCulloch R-1:
------------------------------------
Hey gang-

For the handful of us that have a slight obsession with these ill-handling turkeys, I've located a source for the split flanged bushings that are in the pedals, the steering shaft tube and the kingpin tubes. Here y'go:

IGUS Bearing http://www.igus.com

Here are the part numbers:

Mc Pedal - control rod: MYI 04-04
Mc Pedal - pivot point: MYI 07-07
Kingpins: MYI 08-08
Steering Shaft: MYI 10-18

You can order directly from IGUS.
