Can someone verify these will work?

I need a pair of stepped bushings for the tie rod to spindle connection for my buggy. This is the closest one I could find. My concern is if there is enough engagement in the spindle with the small step width only being .08".

Does anybody know where else I could look for this part? Should I just have someone with a lathe make me something?

Original Part:
I.D.: .500"
• Large Step O.D.: 1.00"
• Large Step Width: .16"
• Small Step O.D.: .6875"
• Small Step Width: .40"
• Overall width: .56"

Quartermax Part:
I.D.: .500"
• Large Step O.D.: .875"
• Large Step Width: .1687"
• Small Step O.D.: .6875"
• Small Step Width: .0813"
• Overall width: .250"
 
The part essentially reduces the hole in the spindle from 11/16" to 1/2".
 
The Fox 2.0 shock bolt spacers have an OD of 11/16" and ID 1/2". Looks like my temporary trail fix is the permanent solution. I'll just use the two stepped bushings I have up top to keep the tie rod mounting points the same and slide the shocks spacers into the bottom.
