Don ,
Maybe 1 our of 50 need a bushing , i fit the shafts to the bushing and check the fit . I do see a few helmets with the shaft damaged from time to time , i just throw them in the trash if the shaft is hurt as well. Putting in new bushings is a pain and
takes some serious time , i have the tooling etc and stock a few bushings but after pressing in a new bushing it needs to be fitted
( reamed) as the bushings tighten up .
If i was just doing maybe one or two i guess i would take the time to do some but they are seldom needed as theres not much side loads on the shaft
