Opinion's/Suggestions needed

Just removed my r/f LCA do service my bushings/bj, and the hole for the end link is a little oblonged or ovaled out, whatever term you would like to use. Its about 1/4 of an inch more in diameter on its widest point versus the shortest. Is this a huge issue or should I replace them?

Since the problem is common, finding a replacement might be hit and miss. I had mine repaired (a bit of welding, a bit of grinding) a few years ago. You might try the so-called 1LE endlinks as the heads are a rounded and may well Bandaid the issue.
