The mystery has been solved. The wrong hinge pins were installed!!! The pins that where in there - that caused the bushings to wear out are pre Alpha 1 Mercruiser MR drive. Head diameter on those are 0.812" All standard Bravo pins are 0.867" head diameter. Looks like the trashed bushings can be pressed out and new ones installed. Thanks again for everyone who contributed to this thread
