It seems a PO used a non-OEM bolt for one of the castor arm bushing bolts. It came loose and hogged out the hole into an oblong shape.
I'm replacing all bushings and bolts with OEM. I think I know the answer but wanted to ask the experts, will this oblong hole cause bolt movement and trash the new bushing, or does this system rely more on the pinch of the bolt against the bushing collar - given use of correct bolt/nut?
Assuming rehabing to original dims will be an expensive process, so wondering if the condition of this hole spell sure doom for my expensive new parts, or is it a minor issue that just needs proper torque and a watchful eye to make sure its holding?
