If the race is shot, then life is probably more difficult. Good luck.
The trip to the auto store was to see if they had anything close or send me in the right direction. They didn’t care what it was called. The circular metal apparatus is broken. I’ll grease it up and go with loose bearings and see what happens. Thank you.
