Hello there Steve,
I have often heard of much foul language and gnashing of teeth as re-
quirements for inserting those bushings, and a KISS option comes to mind:
Use a tapered hand reamer to just slightly ream the bulkhead holes a bit
larger; try pushing the bushing (heh, heh); if necessary, enlarge the
holes just a bit more, etc. Also, a stepped drift, such as an old punch-
press-type sheet metal punch that's a loose fit thru the bushing might
help, you could apply the BFH technique along with the KISS !
Never actually tried this, just sounds good, I'll eat these words if
necessary, your results may...be fine using some other way.
Best regards,
