DT400 swing arm bushings was created by TheBeardedOne

I'm working on fixing up a pair of matching 75 DT400s that I picked up over the winter. It's time to replace the swing arm bushings on at least one of them since I have a good 1/8" of play at the pivot bolt.

Does anyone know if there is an upgrade available for these bushings? Or am I stuck with NOS plastic bits? I've seen a couple of references to possibly being able to use aftermarket bronze bushings for an RD350, but nothing definitive. I know the RD bushings did work in my old DT3, but the DT400 appears to use a different part number than the DT3.

I'd rather confirm that the RD bushings will work before dropping $60 on a set of bushings just to find that they won't work.
