Thanks Lynn I appreciate the information very useful and practical.

Familiar with Sintered Bronze. Spigot bearing in Nissan Patrol 4.2 was made with Sintered Bronze. (Im sure many other vehicles do too)

In my days as a dealer mechanic we had a recall on them which involved r & r the Gearbox. We soaked them in oil then had to actually force a bit through with our fingers.

The bush at the back of the 2 brush, double pulley, truck Generator serves as a spacer primarily and though it runs on the armature shaft is not a load bearing errr, bearing...

It does get a bit of oil from the lube hole at the back and does have felt running round the outside..... It is made from steel, not bronze or brass.

Another riddle solved... The oil filter is required is Fleetguard LF 510. Identical element to the 513 but the 513 comes a bigger diameter rubber gasket. It is the same as what it used on Ford Jeeps.

It appears to be identical to the one that Mike Cecil very helpfully put up pictures of earlier in this thread.
