Thanks Ed.  No laughing.  Thanks for sharing!

Clean all remaining old bushing out of the gap. Wrap the string around and around the shaft until you have built up enough layers of string to fill the gap. Next take super glue (not gel) and from the top start to saturate the string until it's soaked and will not absorb any more glue. Be extremely careful not to allow the glue to drip on you.

When it dries, which is very quickly you will have a very durable bushing. My wife helped me do this (while on my back - no lift) at least 10 years ago and it is still in place. We've driven the car over 30,000 miles since doing that repair and had no issue or

Would you clarify — you are discussing the horizontal tube bushing and that you did this without removing the bushing?  How did you wrap the string inside the bushing without removal?  I cannot see how this is possible.
