thanks...
your samples are more consistant than the ones I received.
just my guessing from the frame dimensions tolerance of 47mm -0/+0.5,
I would have expected the bushings to be spec'ed as 47mm -0.5/+0
which your samples easily fall into that range
where mine appear to be 47mm -1/+1.
I say appear, as was not very deliberate when I did make the measurements yesterday with a caliper.
Now that I have lost confidence in the quality of my new bushings I NEED to also check their diameter when I have to time to ensure my measurements are accurate with the use of mike's
UPDATE...
I measured all 16 I received. the first 8 I looked at that got me concern was a mixed assortment with some stamped ITALY and others with suspicious check marks.
the next 8 all appeared to be newly made and ALL measured a length of 1.830".
My next concern is the diameters...while the first 8 diameters were from 1.183 to 1.189. the second 8 are ALL 1.189"
