You don't really need someone else answering that, or...??:?
Pull that bearing/bushing back out and enlarge the ID until you get a real loose fit, when tried outside the crank, on the input shaft.
We certainly don't want any interference there, between bushing and input shaft, once all was...
Correct on the different letters, but the number is always 308.
NTN and NSK, both use BL308 in their catalogs.
That bearing shown in post #24 is a high-load bearing.

Maybe, 0.023" seems a bit too much.
I just measured a NIB retainer: 1.504", where the thread is.
I got that retainer from m-35tom; he might have some more?
The correct bearing number is BL308ZNR, (90x40x23). Its a high load bearing and has 11 balls, NOT just 8.
