This may be exactly what I need Jon.  My problem has been getting the flange birdseye in line with the jack birdseye.  I was working on a Yamaha today with plastic jacks, so I don't know if it is more difficult than the wood ones.

  To avoid damaging a bushing, use a chase pin. This is usually a #19
  or smaller but actually any pin that slides through the birdseye easily
  will do. This will align the holes and insure that no damage occurs.
  

  SIze the bushings and insert the chase pin, push the new pin in until
  it stops at the birdseye, the chase pin will be pushed out partly. Finish
  installation with a pinning tool.
