Swing arm bushing identification help

Administrator

I need new swing arm bushings.My bike is a 76 cb750f super sportThe swing arm i am using is off another bike.I know it was a k model,but not sure of the year.Both of my sw-arms,original to the bike+one i am using now, have bushings that have a lip on them vs just a straight tube. Would it be safe to order them by appearance alone? If you scroll down a few pages on this link you can see the two different pictures and the lip i am referring to.Or is there another way i can identify what a have? Thanks for any help!
