I continue to dive in head first. I also decided to ignore all the warnings about disassembling the carrier. I'm not really sure what all the fuss is about, it's pretty straight forward.

It appears that someone has turned down the head of the bolt that runs through the carrier. I'm not sure why but that doesn't really matter now.

Whatever they used to build the bushing crumbled over time. I'm not sure if it was lead or soft cast iron but as soon as I poked at it a bit it just fell away.

At this point I think my best bet is to turn a small sleeve to press fit onto the turned down bolt head. I think I'll make it out of brass and add a bit of red Loctite as I press it on. That fix should last another 119 years.
