I'm rebuilding my bellcrank and some of the ends were slightly wallowed out. Enough for me to notice, but not enough, in my view, to warrant the bellcrank replacement.
Aiding in that decision, the replacement nylon bushings I ordered from Grainger are longer than the original (and still available) Bobcat part, which will put the new bushings in un-wallowed part of the bellcrank and/or rod. With four new bushings, the bellcrank is now firm with zero slop.
The Grainger bushings do not have a stop tab built in, so friction weld one in in with some 3/16 nylon rod if needed for your application.
