the GNX owner that chucked his diff cover onto his Bridgeport, before he did that, he went and ordered a replacement from the local Buick dealership parts counter. he had to show proof-of-ownership before they would process the order. it didn't come with the necessary steel insert flange bushings. i couldn't find them listed on McMaster-Carr either. so, sans-bushings.

some measurements: the ID of the holes where the bushings go is appx 0.623". the thickness of the mounting ears is appx 0.752".

i provided some measurements of the press-fit bushings themselves in the other thread which had the billet-restyled diff cover:
bushing ID is appx 0.436" - 0.437". bushing flange thickness is appx 0.11" - 0.12", flange diameter is appx 1.26" - 1.27", some variance.

so, i'm guessing, the bushing sleeve OD would be nominal 5/8", ID at nominal 7/16", flange diameter at nominal 1-1/4", flange thickness at nominal 1/8"? and sleeve depth not more than 3/8" since the casting thickness is nominal 3/4", half of that.
