:P Got it done today.
Took some experimentation, but once it was setup, it was a breeze.

Niall , great job, it looks like the 1/4 inch flat bar as a washer worked really well. :mrgreen:

The flat steel bars came from leftovers from a broken garage door opener...sometimes it pays to keep junk lying around!

Note the threaded bar extends more on the right side of the bushing.
This was a helpful tool in keeping the bushing centered as it went in..
