Hi

My wife found this bushing in the driveway yesterday. I don't know if it's off the trailblazer or the the plow that did our driveway. I went out last night with a flashlight but couldn't find where it could have come from. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Confirm by seeing if it's Metric or English thread. Actually only English is absolute confirmation, but the shape looks like nothing on our platform.

It **DOES** give me a great idea for an April Fool's prank to play on somebody...... Salt their driveway with weird old collected fasteners. :excited:

Roadie after I read your post I was thinking pour a little oil under their car but that would be mean!

That's not automotive. It's a part off of a tool of some sort. Looks like from a hold down table or metal break.

Thanks guys. It is a little worrisome when you don't know the part and can't find where it could of came from. I'll tell the brother-in-law to check his plow a little more closely. Bill, I'm going to check the cameras to see if you were lurking around spreading parts in the driveway. Thanks again all for your help.
