Default Detachable bushings?

Is there someone making replacement bushings for the quick detach tourpak racks?

My buddy lost 1 of his, and the other 3 aren't looking too good.

I thought there was someone making them out of Stainless Steel..........or was I dreaming?

Thanks,

Steve

If you were in the UK I believe I could help you. We have a CNC machine called a Seal Jet which we use for making hydraulic seals. The machine is made by a company called Economos (now owned by SKF). I did google it and find the link below, they would knock them out really easily based on a sample. Probably want to by in a batch, but give them a call anyway
