Hello all! I'm (still) working on my Rupp rebuild, which came with a Comet Cat99 torque converter. It's a unique setup in that the driver unit fits a 5/8" shaft. I haven't been able to find any reference to a Comet driver with a 5/8" bore, but I know the driven is a Cat99, so I figure it's all part of the same setup.
Anyway, I'm trying to figure out if the driver is supposed to have a bronze bushing. There wasn't one on there when I got it, but there are some bronze-ish scuff marks on the unit where it looks like there once was a bronze bushing.
Trouble is, I don't think a 30-series bushing will work because they are all 3/4" bore. So before I buy a bunch of bushings to see what works, I'm curious if anyone has a parts list or other Comet literature from a Cat99. I've read a couple posts over the years about people who discovered Comet-related manuals, but there's nothing posted online about this obsolete unit.
Please let me know if you have any Cat99 documents or otherwise can assist with my quest for a bronze bushing.
Thanks!
