Hi Larry,
Welcome, funny you should post this yesterday. I completed the exact same model yesterday. The pulley on mine doesn't have a bushing of any kind. I did need to adjust the metal carrier for the indicator to get it to move freely. I can send you some pictures of the setup if you would like. I have a question for you, how loud does your radio play. I believe I have a problem because the volume is audible but doesn't seem loud enough.
Let me know if you need the pictures.
Glenn
Happily back in Illinois..not.
