John, if using Loc-Tite use the green stud & bearing mount.. Problem with Loc-Tite on bushings is they tend to wear so the cylindrical tension changes & they don�t stay put.. You have a few choices.. Personally I just make a larger bushing as the OD crush fit also controls the ID size. If you must use those bushings you can make a center mandrel (to hold ID) & use a press to squash the length down & increase the OD slightly (if not careful that could crush the bushing though) Use some brass shim stock sheet & press the bushings in with strips of shim stock between the bushing & hole.. Try using a center punch & punch all around the inside of the hole to decrease it�s size somewhat. Weld the holes up & re-drill them.. Possibly peen the ends of the holes to shrink both outside ends of the holes. If the bushing is slightly longer than the hole-- place a proper sized bolt in the bushing while in the hole with a washer on each side, then tighten the bolt with a nut to pinch those washers & swell the bushing in the hole. Good Luck Clooney
