bit late now but greasable pins/bushes are best for that application (Quote)

 

 

 

You are right but this is how they are made, half of the bushes on these things are plastic which is pants . The bushes that failed had a hole drilled in them to keep the pin located and it was this drilling that was the point of fracture so I never drilled the new ones , I just made the pin longer and used split pins on the outside of them. I dont think long term serviceability comes into it with modern engineering.
