 The rubber disc I fabricated will be too stiff to accommodate the 2 ball joint heads so I'll use the spongy one in the kit.  Also the shaft is 5/8", not 1/2" so I'll use a piece of 5/8" ID hose, not the too large 3/4" ID one noted among the several fixes suggested in Service Bulletin 76-6.  The ~3.5" hose is expected to be a snug fit to the ball joint coupler unit to prevent it rattling.  The other relevant SB, 75-16, has an additional suggested rubber bushing fix.
