I don't know of one but may someone else might. But considering the number of these out there the problem hasn't been great enough for Briggs to redesign this cam either though I have seen a couple versions with one version having a beefier pivot point but both were the same part number. So we are stuck with whatever Briggs engineers are designing currently.
