I seem to recall there was a way to expand the OD slightly with
something like a knurling tool. Does that sound familiar? Is there an
easy way to do this? - Mike
That method is generally recognized as cowboy engineering.
You might hope for better life from using a metal powder filled epoxy to
fill the gap, and that's no great shakes either.
Pick a bigger bush and reduce it, if you possibly can.

What??? Is "cowboy engineering" the newest politically correct version of
political incorrectness in describing a "kluge" or generally unacceptable
practice?
