Keep in mind that aluminum and bronze aren't very compatible from a
corrosion standpoint. The aluminum is going to be sacrificial to the
bronze. Since you've got lots of aluminum and only a little bronze it
isn't horrible, but a stainless bushing is a better choice if you're
going to stay with the aluminum pins.
