I should have just left it alone.
Now I have to get it reamed since the bushings are too tight.

I now have to get done?

You'l have to search around for a shop that has the capability or send the cases out.
A few of us have fabricated jigs for this job but machining equipment and skills are needed. Not sure how you got it out, but a 15/16 tap is a good method.

Jim Comstock or Leo Goff might be the only sources in the USA and the situation is little different here so like Acadian I machined my own line reamer.
The same spiral flute reamer was used on swing arm bushes.
I can only hope you got it sorted.

I was about to and then I checked the camshaft journal which was oversize so I had it ground to size and the cambush was untouched.
