Thanks ya'll
I found a sintered bronze piece from the shop that had my tranny. I did have an order in for PBH286HD from Fisher Auto Parts so I'll follow up if that is a parts store option.
As for rollers - I'd prefer not to have something else that could fail in a big way.
That's just, Like, my opinion man.

Tell me MORE about these Roller Failures? Especially the catastrophic ones.
For 15 years I have used them in all my cars. Most of those cars get the snot whipped out of them. Transmissions are always on the floor for maintenance...NEVER a problem with the rollers. Input shafts always look perfect, no scuffing, no galling no discoloration.
Actually I did recently have a issue where I swapped in a different shortblock into my Duster. I ran it for a while and then would miss a shift every now and then. As it turned out the crank had a bit of wear and the roller popped out. So the input was unsupported. No catastrophic failure... Just a missed shift. On the engine I ended up putting a bushing in it.
I'm thinking if the roller is being blamed for catastrophic failure the car has other problems

Was lucky that it was late at night and only 20 miles from home: was able to time the lights and such in order to get home. Galled the input shaft a little bit in the process. Am not a roller set up basher (am running it in two old Mopars): am just passing along a failure instance.
