I ordered the shim stock and that is what I will try with some loctite. Couldn't source any other bushings that were the right size so this is the direction.

Something else worth mentioning is that this is for sure an original spring. Somebody just took a 10 leaf and pulled one leaf out of it. Bushing holes are not worn, the new bushings are just a little undersized.
