Fortunately the teckies at work were quite this afternoon and managed to cut the pin and with the pin/bolt in three parts managed to press each bit out.I was supprised they were able to cut with a hacksaw what I thought would be a hardened steel bolt,anyway Tony if can confirm the bolt supplyer you have I definately need one and will replace all the bushes-has anyone had any machined and if so what is the best material I thought bronze might be not forgiving enough but perhaps some type of nylon any advice?.Thanks for all your help.

That's the price from my local Mercury parts dealer, just up the road from me.

I have a local machine shop who is going to make these up in a nylon type material and a stainless pin,if anyone wants some please let me know and I will get some extra's.Larby I can post you the old bushes if you want to get sizes from them?.or new bushes if required.Dependant on how many I have made will decide the price,I think OE parts are very expensive?.Cheers Nic
