Hi Bill:

Those bushings can be replaced, but I would take all the rods to a good machine shop and have them checked for alignment.

You can also get an estimate from EGGE or Terrill which are two old line shops that do Packard work. They can send you back the rods and pistons with rings matched to the grooves.

They may also knurlize the skirts to take up any noise.
