The Revcon folks call it a bell crank, I think the part is more or less the same, right?

One end has a rubber bushing. The bushings seems to have a short life.

Some folks on the Revcon forum have replaced the bushing with bearings but I'm not sure all the right questions have been asked and answered.

Why did they use a flexible bushing in the first place?

Would changing to a bearing create trauma to the rest of the linkage?

The steering gear is the same as GMC, most of the other components are Toro.
