i just got the pilot bushing for my 240sx. it is supposed to slide in but it won't, it just sits on the end of the crank, it's a little longer, and a slightly smaller diameter than the auto one. the guy at the nissan dealership didn't seem to confident that this was the right part. Once again thanks for all the help you guys have given me!!!

umm no thats not it, that looks like a needle bearing out of the internals of manual trans. Tell him to look it up via the crank shaft picture or flywheel picture. He is looking in clutch or trans section which the pilot bushing wont be found in due to it being considered a part of the engine.

I work in service and we do work on saturdays,parts is open to. The rumor mill has us possibly opening sundays. My opinion on that pretty much is my family is more important then that, especially when you got youngons at home. I cant even believe they are considering that.
