Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is YL 520086800 the same part as YL 5200868-00?
A: Yes. YL 520086800 and YL 5200868-00 are identical bushings. The SKU format differs due to internal part number conventions, but they are direct cross-references. Either number will bring you the same bushing component.
Q: What are the bushing dimensions and weight?
A: Exact dimensions vary by application context. Check your equipment parts diagram or contact our technical team with your truck model and serial number for precise bore diameter, outer diameter, and length specifications. Standard Yale bushings range from 10mm to 30mm in bore size depending on assembly location.
Q: Does this bushing require lubrication?
A: Yale composite bushings are designed with self-lubricating properties but benefit from periodic greasing depending on mounting location. Refer to your equipment maintenance schedule. Over-greasing can cause buildup and accelerate wear, while under-greasing reduces bushing life. Moderate, scheduled lubrication during routine maintenance is optimal.
Q: What failure symptoms indicate this bushing needs replacement?
A: Signs of bushing wear include increased steering play or looseness in the truck handle, grinding or squeaking noises from the drivetrain, visible axial movement in the wheel assembly, or difficulty steering smoothly. Any of these conditions warrant prompt replacement to prevent secondary damage to shafts or mounting points.
Q: Are there equivalent aftermarket bushings for this Yale part?
A: Aftermarket providers offer compatible composite and bronze bushings. Verify that bore diameter, outer diameter, length, and material specifications match your Yale equipment. We stock direct OEM Yale parts and qualified replacements that meet or exceed original performance specifications.
