Default Pilot Bearing?!?!?!

Hey folks,
Well I was getting the engine ready to go back in to the Money Pit. Well I have a snag.
Autozone an OReillys both show a pilot bearing that is .5xxx inside diameter.
Well my tranny input shaft measures .750 diameter.
NO one lists a pilot bushing of this size.

I think this XJ (87 model) use to be a Forestry Jeep. Could it be that the Government ordered different specs? I know he old Dodge 4x4 Army trucks was 98% different than the civilian models.

Did I not mention that my tranny has a pilot shaft that measures 3/4" or .750 and not .5xxx
Tell me how that parts helps me, and WTF is mine different than everyone else's?

I've already googled it and looked at all the on-line suppliers.

Very possible. I'll call and order one tomorrow and see how it goes.
I hope it fits in the crank of a 88 REnix engine. I'm going to if it doesn't.
