Dialer drive shaft help needed
#1

I have a Philco 71 and a RCA R-7A that both require some kind of rubber bushing to rotate the dial. There is nothing on either of the dial drive shafts. 

The 2nd pic is a pic of a GE S-22 drive shaft, which is the same chassis as the RCA, shows what I need for the RCA.

The problem is I don’t even know what these items are called. I have looked at the parts list but couldn’t find anything that seemed to fit.

Any help as to what these are called and who would carry/sell them it would be greatly appreciated.

Would have a look at the auto parts store. A piece of rubber 1/4" fuel line might fit the bill. Or the hardware store in the rubber grommets section or sometimes the pluming section has some interesting widgets.

The Philco 71 uses a dial cord, not a piece of rubber.
