F 350 Clutch safety switch
1999 F-350, 7.3 Diesel, 6 speed manual, 2WD, Std Cab.
There is a "lollipop" end on the switch connected to the clutch lever. It is the cut off switch to prevent starting with the clutch out.
It seems that the bushing/bearing inside the lollipop is gone.
Is there a replacement bushing available?
Thank you.
Eric

Was part of the switch.
Some of the higher mileage trucks used to damage the drive pin and the retainer wouldn't hold. We used to make a bushing for the eye, and use a thin washer and cotter pin hole drilled in to the retainer grove..
