I know Scott at 914Rubber will make them good but did anybody else have any trouble? Outer diameter is just fine. The inner is not so good. The pivots should just drop in but as you can see, not happening.

Looks like you might have got the bushing and not the bearing sleeve.

No problems for me. The fit was snug but not tight.

Thats what I'm seeing too.
They look similar but are not interchangeable

Second picture is the pivot bushing g I believe you have.
