Any bushings I've bought over the last few years have been solid, not split.
I suppose a split bushing could be installed over the rod and into the
eyelet without any dismantling of the rod assembly, but I fit the new solid
bushing as things are going together and have never found the need to
replace one unless a total restoration is under way. The originals seem to
last almost forever unless they've been torched or covered in paint.
