I have an aluminum tube that I need to put a bushing in. My first thought was to just drill it to the next size and hysol a cut tube as a bushing but I need it to be real solid. So I need some opinions, I have heard of swaged bushings and joe bolts but can't find much info on them. I don't want it to be threaded just a regular bushing, the bottom (blind side) (inside of the tube) needs to be flush.
