I would undo it & a visual & spin it in your drill press. Ebay might be a source.

I also replaced the bushings. what bushings did you use & did they require reaming? were they worn before, shaft had too much radial play (but no binding) & now after replaceing them they are binding?

the reaming would be for the bushing ID once installed (if needed depending on the bushings used). are we on the same page? EDIT on the clocking where it ain't binding is it loose/tight/just right?

Alright we're good. Grainger has an adjustable 15/32-17/32 straight flute reamer for $20 some dollars (I have one). One of the bushings is likely tilted a bit. for the price that would be my suggestion.

If it was me, I'd run it and let the shaft/bushings "self clearance".
