I went thru this on my deuce a few years back.

Decided to make new pins (6x) 0.010" oversize and ream out the bushings to clean up the wear.

Worked out for me but had access to a machine shop. Needed new pins anyway they were worn.

I could not find the bushings for the leaf springs either at the time. Have never seen them for sale but not saying they aren't out there.
