Definitely going to replace the bushing - and since I have three vans
- I'm going to make the shouldered punch tool specific to the bushing.

How long should the punch be? and how far from the bushing end of the
punch should the shoulder be? Just enough to slip into the bushing - or
longer?

And thanks for the heads up on what to inspect and do while the starter
is out.
