I like the broached bronze bushing into larger round bearing hole idea, Art. We might try that.

It seems like a business such as West Coast Products www.wcproducts.net might want to investigate adding a little competition to the marketplace for a popular product like this hex bearing...if they haven't already.
Travis,

Working on it! We should have some in a rubber seal in about 4-5 months. Too late for this build, but something to consider for later.
