Also, we are planning on using them in our arms. Last year we used the cheap hardware store ones in the same kind of arms but they were 5/8". By the end of two regionals they had really gotten sloppy and had a lot of play. For half a rotation 180 degrees, I wonder if bushings would be good better for this. Take a look at our arms from last year here: http://www.team696.org/forum/image.php?iid=172
