I don't usually but into these things but I couldn't help commenting. IMHO
bushings that take ANY stress should be bronze or bronzite (best, a harder
alloy with good wear properties). Copper is way too soft and will wear
through very quickly.
Good luck on your project,

Hi Carlos.
I have made bushings using tubing available in model a/c shops. You can get
them in many sizes made of copper or al.
I used copper. Hope this helps.
