"I don't like the method myself, it is actually a bit of a bodge . Problem is: The splines really make a mess of the reamed hole. If you have to remove the bolt a few times , the hole ends up being torn and messed up. The hangers are only made from 1/4" plate which is a design flaw."

Might I suggest that you could weld a tab on to the Hanger plate to stop the Bolt from "working" and therefore restrict the wear to the bushings?
