Looks a little tight getting my micrometer inside the FW to measure, we`ll see how it goes.

Iam not saying it is 34mm, just a guess right now, thinking how difficult it was to get that bearing in, when the other engine it almost fell in, in comparison.

Well it is just a silly little millimeter.

Use a Telescopic/Snap Gauge a long with the Micrometer. Your Friend that made the other Pilot Bushing may have one in the size you need.

They also make them with longer handles.
