    I'm working on bringing a 420 Auto back to life. A part I'm having a heck of a time locating is the rubber "Lever Support", part # 16 11 187-01. The part is roughly a 1" x 3" rubber part molded with a "D" and "N" and is attached to a bracket on the transmission cover. The piece supports the transmission lever.


    I've checked with TriTrophy, Husqvarna-Parts, Halls Husky and HVA Factory - no luck. Do one of you guys have a source for parts like this, or maybe even a good used one you'll part with?

    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    It doesn't actually do anything . The lever doesn't rest on it . Or locate the lever etc . But yea gl finding one . Surely there's one stuck to some rotten old cases somewhere

    Is this the rubber block on the clutch cover that stops the kick starter? One block is glued straight kicker and the other has a facing up "C" that holds the crooked kick starter. Might have to make one. I glued one on once.

    Thanks for the reply, and explaining how the piece works. I'd still like to complete the motor, particularly after all the work I've put into it!

    I'll keep looking - if any of you guys have a source please let me know.

    Thanks,

    I thought I'd push my luck on my 420 Auto rebuild and ask if anyone has a source for the primary clutch spring cover like the picture below (I realize that's not a 420, but it shows the concept).
