Rinse and forget! fits toilet lever

I've tried a few universal flush levers from the Orange Store and none of them were good. Stay away from Flowmaster's generic plastic, it's solid junk. This arm works well because of the difference in height between the arm and the end point rinse arm. This difference in height is exacerbated when we flush - we start with the flush arm about 1 inch above the end point of the arm and end with the flush arm about 1 inch below the end point of the arm (the end of the arm turns up as the flush arm rotates down ). This results in a good 3+ inch flapper jerk and excellent flushing. Using a side mount with an adjustable Fluidmaster damper brings new life to an old ole throne. Solidly made and heavy with a good spring hopefully worth the price to keep the lever stuck. Ordered another one for our second throne. Edit: The second works just as well, but noticed that the tip of the lever was too close to the breech at the same level, so just removed the lever arm by loosening the set screw and sawing off about 3/4" of the end that is closest to the end of the lever and reattach it, now it's perfect.
