Beekeeper, I had a similar problem with an Idler Gear bearing in a Cub engine. The bearing went into the gear with no problems but instead of having 0.001"- 0.0025" clearance, the bearing was undersized approximatly 0.004". I spoke to two Machinists and they both told me the same thing; use 800 or 1000 grit wet/dry sand paper over a brake cyclinder hone and lube with WD-40. It took about 2 hours but the clearance is now within spec and the bearing is much smoother than when I started. I found that using heavy-duty double-sided tape over the stones on the brake hone then wraping the sand paper over the tape works fairly well.
