'Pete,I don't know of a source for purchase of finished bushings. I replaced my bushings per Service Bulletin 42-5-C. It calls out the bushing part numbers.The Fairchild drawing for the bushings has all the dimensions and material information needed to fabricate. I used Aluminum Bronze 954 that matches the U.T.S. called out on the drawing. Available with certification from Mcmaster Carr or Online Metals..'

Thanks so much for the information. I did find the drawing. Any suggestions on removal of the old ones?
