Short story is, I own a 2015 GT52XLSi. The steering was real sloppy so I added a washer to the top of the steering stem and that helped. I checking out the steering bushing - it was worn and loose. That bushing was a round white plastic job but the on line diagrams shows a B2 bomber shaped thing with bolt holes in it. The closest machine to mine that had a round bushing was a GT48XLSi and that had a black bushing 195227 so I ordered one. It's sloppier than the broken one. So can I asume 195228 is the correct one before I order that one or am I going to have to drill and install the B2? The 228 supposedly has a smaller diameter hole....so the "garden tractors' have smaller steering colums than the cheaper lawn tractors? In the mean time the color doesn't mean much as I've black bushing labeled with both numbers and same with white. Does anyone make a more permanent bushing? I'm a tad confused.

Is this the part you’re looking for. https://www.partstree.com/parts/husqvarna-585029802/
If I use that part (the B2) I'll have to drill holes to mount it. What came out was a white version of this cheap plastic thing. The part you showed is what it should have but doesn't.....I think. That part looks metal. maybe I'd be better off trying to make that work if it is!

Go back to the parts list for the whole mower and check the diagram for the dash panel & controls .
The logic fails me but some times the upper bush is shown as part of the dash not part of the steering and on a couple of lists I found them on the Frame & Fittings page
Probably makes sense to the drafts person or because they are fitted by the Dash fitting team or they come preinstalled in the dash .

To make the look-ups even more problematic is that inexperience doesn't take into account the different variations that a particular model might have as with this one. There is at least 3 variations of this model so you must use the long model number from the serial number tag.
Now as the two bushings one is listed the frame section and the other is in the steering section.
