Post Bushings
Why is it some long tails have just a two bushing one at both ends and some have more.
Will one at both ends and none in the middle be good on a 6.5 hp

Some people worry about "shaft whip" or a bent shaft. This is caused by a flexing of the shaft. I've never had a problem with larger engines using one on each end.
